Do I have to go to the doctor to remove IUD?
You should go to a doctor to remove IUD. Attempting to remove IUD could be incredibly dangerous. If IUD removal is incorrectly carried out by a person who is inexperienced in IUD removal and which is not a trained medical specialist with experience in inserting and removing IUD, there is a greater risk of serious internal bleeding from the uterus release. This internal bleeding could be a threatening life. If you need to remove your IUD, you should contact a doctor or a gynecologist who gave you to let her remove. If you have a period at the time when your IUD is removed, your cervix will probably be much softer than usual. The softer your cervix is, the easier your IUD should get out. Your doctor could also ask you to avoid sexual intercourse a week before Iud is removed. Avoiding sex before removing IUD can reduce chances that you develop an infection due to removal.
To remove your IUD, your doctor will have to find IUD chains and pull on IUD to pull them out. This is not as simple as it may sound, because IUD pulls out very carefully. Your doctor must pull out the right angle to prevent damage to the uterus or cervix. This is one of the reasons why people who are not trained in removing IUD should not be attempted to remove IUD. Even if you are trained in removing IUD, you should not try to remove your own IUD, because you would probably not be able to pull it out at the right angle to prevent injury.
As soon as your doctor pulls out your IUD, you should have no other problems. If you notice something unusual after your IUD has been divided from what your doctor told you to expect, you should immediately re -see your doctor. Although not common, doctors sometimes remove IUD incorrectly, which could cause uterus or uterinepiercing. Severe bleeding after IUD removal is a sign of puncture and if you notice it, you should return to the doctor immediately. The sooner the bleeding is taken care of, the less likely it is to cause serious problems.
