In birth control, spiral leading

GYNECOLOGY Specialist Dr. Nagihan Saz said that women have moved away from using drugs to prevent pregnancy, and the number of people who prefer spiral (intrauterine device) has increased. Pointing out that spirals can be attached to women who have never given birth, Opr. Dr. Saz said, "Thus, the prejudice that a spiral cannot be attached to a woman who has not given birth was destroyed. Spiral is also a reliable method for new mothers and breastfeeding women.

İzmir Kent Hospital Gynecology and Obstetrics Specialist Opr. Dr. Nagihan Saz said that preventing unwanted pregnancies is very important for a healthy society and family, and the way to do this is through good family planning. Opr. Dr. Saz said:

“There are many types of intrauterine devices. There are spirals for both treatment and prevention, which can be attached to women who have never given birth. Contrary to popular belief, breastfeeding mothers also need to be protected. The spiral is also a safe method for new mothers and lactating women, even during cesarean section. Intrauterine devices do not cause permanent infertility, fertility returns from the moment they are removed, they generally do not disrupt the menstrual cycle, they are not felt by the partner or the person they are attached to. Those with hormones are generally preferred for both prevention and treatment purposes. Copper T shaped ones are generally preferred for protection purposes only, for people who have given birth before and who do not have a copper allergy or Wilson s disease. The spirals known as  beaded among the people and fixed to the uterine wall are suitable for those who have not given birth yet, have a T shaped intrauterine device inserted before, but have slipped or fallen. Women are not as willing to use drugs to prevent pregnancy as they used to be. While we, as physicians, can safely recommend the spiral to women over the age of 35 who smoke and already have to use medication due to other diseases, we cannot recommend the birth control pill with the same reliability.
