Selection of IUD
The IUD is a very safe and effective contraceptive measure that can achieve long-term contraception and is very popular among female friends. However, many female friends often feel confused about the choice of IUD. Below, we will introduce to you from four aspects what kind of IUD is the best and safest.
Materials
The first thing to pay attention to is the material aspect of the IUD. There are currently three types of IUDs on the market: copper, platinum and rubber. A very small number of people have allergic reactions to copper, so suitability needs to be checked first. Platinum IUDs are more expensive and require specialized equipment from a doctor to operate. Rubber IUDs are by far the most common choice.
Two different types of rubber IUD
It is worth noting that different rubber materials also differ. Ordinary rubber IUDs are relatively hard and can easily cause discomfort, while silicone rubber is softer and more comfortable, so it is more appropriate to choose a silicone IUD.
The rubber texture should not be too soft
In addition, too soft rubber material will cause the birth control ring to easily deform in the fallopian tube, thus affecting the birth control effect. Therefore, when choosing an IUD, you need to pay attention to the hardness of the material it is made of.
Shape aspect
The shape of the IUD is also a factor that needs to be paid attention to during the selection process. The two most common birth control rings currently on the market are T-shaped and U-shaped.
Choose a T-shaped IUD
Due to its shape, the T-shaped IUD is more suitable for fitting the uterus and is less likely to cause pain and other problems. At the same time, the incision of the T-shaped IUD is also \”sharp\”, and the degree of hooking into the fallopian tube is also deeper, so the chance of preventing loss is smaller than that of the U-shaped IUD.
Choose a U-shaped birth control ring
For women with thin endometrium and no childbearing experience, a U-shaped IUD is more appropriate. Because of its soft shape, it is not easy to irritate the endometrium, and its U-shaped fit is smaller in size, making it easier to insert and remove.
Brand aspect
The brand of the birth control ring is also a factor that needs to be paid attention to. Currently, there are birth control rings of different brands such as Huashan, Thailand, and Medico on the market.
Choose a legitimate brand of birth control ring
It should be noted that when choosing a brand, you must choose a regular consumer brand. The materials used by different brands vary greatly, and products of substandard quality can cause damage to women\’s bodies. Therefore, it is safer to choose a regulated and transparent brand.
Choose a birth control ring from a brand with a good reputation
At the same time, brands with good reputations usually have a certain amount of experience and can provide consumers with guaranteed products and services in terms of product research and development, production, and sales. When it comes to long-term use of IUDs, it is also very important to choose products with a good reputation.
Hospital selection
After you have determined the brand, material and shape of the IUD, you need to find a regular hospital for the operation.
Choose skilled doctors for surgery
First, you need to choose a skilled doctor to perform the surgery. Different operating techniques will lead to differences in post-operative discomfort, loss rate, etc. Therefore, it is important to choose a doctor with strong professionalism and rich experience.
Be careful to choose a regular hospital
In addition, you must choose a regular gynecological hospital and pay attention to the hospital\’s environmental sanitation, doctor\’s qualifications, instrument disinfection, and post-operative care. This can avoid unknown medical accidents and incorrect operations.
Conclusion
Based on the above four points, we can know that when choosing an IUD, we need to pay attention to four aspects: material, shape, brand, and hospital. We also need to pay attention to factors such as personal physique and doctor\’s recommendations. Choosing the right birth control ring can not only achieve good contraceptive effects, but also bring more convenient and comfortable management guarantees to female friends.
