Is it allowed to take Iud during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

It is advisable to insert it after uterine involution has occurred. (6 to 8 weeks after delivery). It may be done in spite of the absence of menses. Most anti-inflammatory drugs or those for general or local anesthesia eventually used on IUD insertion are compatible with breastfeeding. Within the first 6 postnatal weeks of life non-hormonal methods are considered of choice.
