These difficulties can last for a few weeks but tend to be worse for the first couple of days, potentially making sex uncomfortable. One of the most common questions after getting an iud is how long one should wait before having sex. How long this lasts differs from person to person If it hurts, you can take painkillers like paracetamol or ibuprofen to feel better. This contraception type stays in the uterus, so you may wonder if having sex. For hormonal iuds like mirena, skyla, kyleena, and liletta, the device is effective immediately if it’s inserted within seven days of the start of your period
If the iud isn’t inserted during this timeframe, it will be fully effective seven days after insertion Use a backup method of birth control if you have sex before your iud is effective. If you have your kyleena iud inserted at any other time during your monthly cycle, you will need to use another contraceptive method (such as spermicide or condoms) for seven days after having kyleena inserted Kylenna is a hormone releasing iud (intrauterine device) that can provide continuous pregnancy prevention for up to 5 years.
