Tenemos que hablar del DIU y el dolor
Cosmopolitan México|Diciembre 2023
Estos anticonceptivos que duran hasta 12 años podrían -literalmente-salvar vidas, pero hay una trampa: llevarlo puede sentirse como la muerte.

Tenemos que hablar del DIU y el dolor

Tu mejor amiga del trabajo, tu hermana, todo #DIU en TikTok y cualquier otra mujer que se haya colocado este dispositivo te hablará de los pellizcos, las punzadas y calambres avasalladores que les hicieron ver a Dios. Es cierto que a la gente le gusta adornar sus historias de terror, pero también es importante analizar los datos concretos, como el hecho de que, según un estudio publicado en el Journal of Family Planning and Reproductive Health Care, el 78% de las mujeres consideran que ponerse un DIU es moderada o gravemente doloroso; o que en una encuesta reciente de Cosmopolitan US, el 69% de las encuestadas afirmaron que la intervención era "bastante horrible, la verdad".

Así que te comparto la gran pregunta, la razón por la cual esta historia es una historia: ¿por qué muchos médicos (si no es que la mayoría) siguen afirmando a las pacientes que la inserción del DIU solo implica "algunas molestias"?
