Intrauterine device insertion during cesarean section

Abstract

Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are highly effective contraception, with rates of failure of less than one percent in the first year of utilize. Intrauterine devices are frequently placed at postpartum visits, typically four to six weeks following delivery but increasingly are being placed immediately post-partum, within three days of delivery. IUDs prevent pregnancy by Preventing sperm from fertilizing the egg, killing or immobilizing sperm by creating an inflammatory reaction inside the uterus that is toxic to sperm. Intrauterine devices are accessible to the majority of females, involving those who have not had kids and adolescent females. An intrauterine device can be inserted at any time during the menstrual cycle if females have not had unprotected sex since their last period. Before an intrauterine device is put, a pregnancy test must be performed on females who have engaged in sexual activity without protection. When it comes to females, the most prevalent causes for having an intrauterine device removed are pain and hemorrhage, which accounts for more than half of all removals that occur before the typical replacement time. Copper intrauterine devices are known to cause cramping and raise the volume of monthly bleeding. A nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug can typically alleviate the cramping. Implantable urinary devices that release levonorgestrel are known to induce irregular bleeding in the first few months following installation.
