Kungani Kubalulekile Ukuhlela Umndeni Lapho Ukhetha I-IUD
-Delile
Ama-intrauterine devices (IUDs) aziwa kakhulu kunakuqala kulo nyaka, iNational Center for Health Statistics imemezele ukwanda okuphindwe kahlanu kwesibalo sabesifazane abakhetha ukuvimbela inzalo esebenza isikhathi eside (LARC). Futhi sithola ukuthi kungani-ngaphezu kokuvimbela ukukhulelwa, futhi kungenzeka ukuthi uthole amaphuzu alula futhi i-IUD idinga umsebenzi we-zero engxenyeni yakho ngemuva kokufakwa. Kodwa lowo msebenzi onguziro uza ngokunye ukuyekethisa: Uzikhiyela ekubambezeleni ukuba ngumama isikhathi eside kunephilisi lansuku zonke njengoba ubude bempilo yedivayisi yakho, kuye ngemodeli, bungaba iminyaka efika kweyi-10! (Ngabe i-IUD iyindlela enhle kakhulu yokulawula inzalo kuwe?)
Kuyavela ukuthi, iningi lethu alikucabangi kangako ukuthi sizofuna izingane eminyakeni emithathu, singafuna ukukhetha ukuvikelwa okungaphansi kokuzibophezela. Eqinisweni, ucwaningo olusha oluvela kubacwaningi ePenn State College of Medicine luthole ukuthi abesifazane banamathuba amaningi okwenza izinqumo zabo zokulawula ukuzalwa ngokuya ngesimo sabo sobudlelwano njengamanje kanye nokwenza ucansi ngaphezu kwezinhlelo zabo zokukhulelwa zesikhathi eside. Ngakho-ke, kubonakala sengathi sikhethela ama-LARC uma nje simatasatasa njalo. Ocwaningweni, labo abenza ucansi izikhathi ezimbili noma ngaphezulu ngesonto babenamathuba acishe aphindwe kasishiyagalolunye wokukhetha i-LARC kunendlela yokuvimbela inzalo engavumelekile (njengekhondomu). Abesifazane ebudlelwaneni (abangahle benze ucansi njalo, yize isifundo singacacisanga) babenamathuba angaphezu kokuphindwe kahlanu okuphendukela ekuvikelekeni okwethembekile.
"Ngisola ukuthi abesifazane abenza ucansi bavame ukubona (ngendlela efanele) ukuthi basengozini enkulu yokukhulelwa, futhi ngenxa yalokho bayaqaphela ukuthi badinga izindlela eziphumelela kakhudlwana ukuze bagweme ukukhulelwa," kusho umbhali oholayo uCynthia H. Chuang, MD. (Ngokuhlakanipha, uma ucabanga ukuthi amathuba akho okukhulelwa aphezulu ngeSoka Elisha.)
Okuthathwayo: Uma uqiniseka ngamaphesenti ayi-100 ukuthi awuzifuni izingane eminyakeni emithathu, emihlanu, noma eyi-10 ezayo, khona-ke ukuba lula nokuthembeka kwe-IUD kungase kuphelele kuwe, kusho uChristine Greves, MD, udokotela wezifo zabesifazane endaweni. Isibhedlela iWinnie Palmer Sabesifazane Nezingane. Futhi akukhona ukuzibophezela okugcwele: "Abesifazane bangakwazi futhi bakhiphe ama-IUD kusenesikhathi," kusho uChuang, ekhomba ikakhulukazi uma beba nemiphumela engemihle noma uma bevele banqume ukuthi abawafuni ngemva kwezinyanga ezintathu. Kepha ama-LARC asebenza kakhulu (futhi kwesinye isikhathi kubuhlungu) ukufaka kunokuvele nje avele iphilisi njalo ekuseni futhi ngokomqondo kuhloselwe ukuhlala isikhathi sabo sokuphila esigcwele, okusho ukuthi isinqumo sokuthola eyodwa kuhloselwe ukukukhipha ekulandeleni ingane okungenani iminyaka embalwa (yize kungesona isinqumo esingahlehliseki). Wazi kanjani ukuthi yikuphi okulungele wena? Qala ngale Mibuzo emithathu Yokulawulwa Kokuzalwa Okufanele Uyibuze Udokotela Wakho.
