Introduction
In general, "Shang Man Yue Le Huan" refers to the insertion of an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD). Whether the insertion of an IUD needs to be painless mainly depends on individual pain tolerance. If an individual has low pain sensitivity, a painless procedure may not be necessary; however, if the individual has high pain sensitivity, a painless procedure may be required. If you experience any discomfort, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.
In general, the term "upper Mirena ring" refers to the placement of an intrauterine contraceptive device. Whether or not pain relief is needed during the placement mainly depends on individual pain tolerance. If a person has a low sensitivity to pain, pain relief might not be necessary. However, if someone is highly sensitive to pain, opting for a pain-free procedure might be preferable. Detailed explanations are as follows:
For women with lower pain sensitivity, during the placement of an intrauterine device (IUD), doctors will employ gentle techniques and administer local anesthesia beforehand to reduce discomfort. In such cases, pain-free sedation might not be necessary.
However, if a patient is highly sensitive to pain or has had previous surgical experiences accompanied by significant pain, choosing a pain-free IUD placement can help alleviate discomfort during the procedure.
Regardless of the method chosen, the procedure should always be performed under the guidance of a qualified physician to ensure safety and effectiveness. Additionally, post-procedure rest is essential, and patients should follow the doctor's instructions for recovery. Sexual activity and tub bathing should be avoided for a period of time to reduce the risk of infection.
