An IUD can be safely inserted at any time during the menstrual cycle. Traditionally, clinicians have been taught to insert an IUD during menses because the patient was very unlikely to be pregnant and because they have been told that the cervix dilates during menstrual flow, allowing easier introduction of the IUD. No literature exists proving cervical dilation occurs with menses.
When an IUD is chosen as the contraceptive method after a first-trimester abortion, the device can be inserted at any time so long as infection is not present. After a second-trimester abortion, insertion should be delayed until after uterine involution is completed.
