Is it still necessary to use condoms after i get the iud?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The iud is immediately effective for pregnancy prevention, but it does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases. If you or your partner are at risk for stds, you should consistently use condoms.
