Updates to IUD procedure after women speak out
Guidance for healthcare professionals fitting IUD contraceptive devices (known as the coil) has been updated after 麻豆社鈥檚 Naga Munchetty and journalist Caitlin Moran spoke out about the pain they suffered while having the procedure.
Speaking to Naga Munchetty on her 5 Live programme, vice president of the Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Health (FSRH), Dr Janet Barter, said it鈥檚 鈥渁lways useful when woman speak out鈥�.
The guidance now states healthcare professionals across the UK should offer 鈥渁ppropriate analgesia鈥� or refer on to another healthcare provider if they cannot offer this.
