Precautions after IUD insertion

After having an IUD inserted, please pay attention to the following: 1. Maintain hygiene: Special attention should be paid to genital cleanliness after IUD insertion. Clean the area daily with warm water and change underwear frequently. It is recommended to wear loose, comfortable cotton underwear. Avoid sitting baths and sexual intercourse for two weeks to prevent infection. 2. Get proper rest: The cervix may remain slightly open after IUD insertion. To prevent IUD expulsion, avoid strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor for one week. Bed rest is advised for the first two days, and overexertion should be avoided afterward. 3. Dietary adjustments: Eat more foods that help replenish blood and iron, as well as those rich in vitamin C, such as brown sugar, pork liver, red dates, black fungus, legumes, animal organs, laver (seaweed), tomatoes, strawberries, and radishes, to promote recovery.
