I have known one or two highly sexed women who went out and had intercourse immediately after an IUD insertion, but I feel that commonsense suggests that you should give the device 24 hours to settle down before having sex.

Dear doctor. Thank you for replying. I was thinking that i had posted an extremely stupid question. Anyways, i guess what i wanted to ask was, how effective is the device in preventing unwanted pregnancy. Also more than 2 weeks have passed since she got it installed. Can you please let me know. Once again thanks for replying.
General Surgeon Dr. Azhar Khan's  Response
You are welcome i would like to know whether the IUD inserted was Cu T380 A?Cu T has been considered as one of the most effective contraceptive device as it very long acting and reversible too,it provides about 7-10yrs of contraception,one drawback is that its doesn't provide protection against STD,One more thing your Dr.might have told you regarding some problems after insertion likewise Menstrual cramps, occasionally heavy bleeds,but these will diminish within 2-3months of life.So wish you happy life forward.
