When can I take a bath? The information is not clear if it is 7 days after installation or 24 hours...

Question

I had an IUD installed on Thursday, March 9. Hello, The doctor put an IUD in me on March 9. He did not mention anything other than not to insert anything in the vagina for 24 hours. Can I take a bath? According to the information found on the internet, you must not insert anything in the vagina and bathing is forbidden for 7 days. Thank you for your help!

Hello madam, in order to better advise you, would it be possible to know what the doctor has informed you? Thank you for the information, I'm sorry for the delay in my reply, I hadn't seen the notification! Usually, 24 hours is enough time to bathe after the IUD insertion. Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
