Welcome to Healthcare Magic

Alcohol has no effect on IUD unless you have liver disorders which can cause increased bleeding after inserting the IUD. Alcohol may reduce immunity and can cause increased incidence of infection. Kindly stop drinking alcohol for your own good as it can lead to serious health problems.
