How soon after emergency copper iud insertion can i safely have sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
IUD ?'s: "Emergency copper IUD insertion" may refer to use of IUD after unprotected sex prior to the expected onset of the next period, and if the expected inhibition of implantation of the fertilized egg is successful, and the next period occurs, pregnancy protection is essentially 97% with the copper type of IUD thereafter. If the period is delayed, obtain a serum HCG test to be certain.
