A member asked:

If i have iud how can keep it in its true place and not let it move? can i live normally?go to jem work at home and carry my handicapped kid normally?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal activities: An IUD is put in its proper place by your GYN and there are no restrictions on your activity. Live your life as you normally would, go to the gym, carry your child... these things do not affect placement. Have the regularly scheduled evals by your GYN as they have indicated you should.
