Inserting an IUD. Timing. An IUD can be safely inserted at any time during the menstrual cycle. Traditionally, clinicians have been taught to insert an IUD during menses because the patient was very unlikely to be pregnant and because they have been told that the cervix dilates during menstrual flow, allowing easier introduction of the IUD. No literature exists proving cervical dilation occurs with menses.
How soon can I have sex after IUD insertion? Patient : I recently had the flexi t 380 IUD inserted one week ago and was wondering how long after do you have to wait to have sexual intercourse? Doctor : IUD or intrauterine device is a T-shaped device that is inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. IUDs prevent the sperm travelling to the egg, thus preventing pregnancy. You can have sex as soon as you like after the IUD is inserted.
