Depends: If you are worried about stds, then never have unprotected sex, iuds don't prevent anything but pregnancy. If not, as soon as you stop cramping from the insertion, you can have sex. There is a small chance that the iud will fall out, to be really safe, wait 30 days to make sure it stays inside you.
