How is an IUD Inserted?

An IUD is an effective method of birth control that provides protection from pregnancy for several years. It is not effective for preventing STDs, but it is popular because it requires very little effort on the part of the user. Typically, the only reason an IUD fails to prevent pregnancy is because it shifts or is expelled from the uterus. The potential for user error is one of the main reasons doctors believe it is a quality method of birth control.

If you have decided an IUD is right for you, your next step is to schedule an appointment to have the device inserted. Only a qualified medical professional can do this. An IUD must also be removed by a doctor. The insertion process can take place at any time, but it is typically less uncomfortable if scheduled in the middle of a woman’s menstrual cycle. This is when the cervix is softest and most open, making it easier to manipulate and place the IUD.

Inserting the IUD

The process is similar to a pelvic exam. Your doctor will position you on the exam table and insert the speculum. The device is bent from its T-shape into a tube and inserted. Once inside, it expands back into its T-shape to fill the space in your uterus. There is a string attached to the device that hangs into the vagina. Your doctor should show you how to feel for the string so you can test the placement on a periodic basis. This should be done to ensure your IUD is in place and working effectively.

Most women undergo a local anesthetic during the insertion process. There may be some cramping during the process and in the days following the insertion. This should continue to lighten as time passes, so contact your doctor if the pain persists or worsen.

Side Effects

Some women feel dizzy or light-headed following insertion. There are very few instances of fainting, but it has been known to occur. It is best to rest after the insertion of your IUD, at least for a few hours after the process. You should feel comfortable and relatively pain-free, but it may take your body some time to adjust to the device. This is especially true for the hormonal variety that releases progestin into the body.

Some women report hormonal symptoms in the weeks and months following the insertion of their IUD, but most health professionals agree these symptoms are not serious. If you discover you are having intolerable side effects, there is a chance you are allergic to the copper in the IUD or that your body has rejected it for some other reason. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe pain, cramping, nausea or vomiting, or anything that makes your day to day routine impossible.
