A member asked:
Is it possible for me to have gotten pelvic inflammatory disease from iud insertion or removal because its been 8 months i still have sharp pelvicpain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Extremely unlikely!: All iuds are sealed. I doubt withdrawal under sterile conditions could do it either. The answer is elsewhere. By the way, you can acquire all stds using an iud . Good contraception! worthless for std protection!
