I was told that I need to remove all jewellery before surgery. Do I need to get my copper IUD removed as well? Thanks.
Answer: IUD No, you will not need to remove your copper IUD. You will need to remove any jewellery on the outside of your body for safety with the cautery. Please speak to your surgeon if you are concerned.Regards,

Answer: IUD removal Thanks for your question. I would mention this to your surgeon ahead of time, but in general I do not know of any reason that you would need your IUD removed prior to surgery. Take care and all the best.

Answer: Does a copper IUD need to be removed before BA? Your IUD should not have to be removed in order for you to have surgery. The concern would be metal jewelry such as external body piercings which can cause problems when electrocautery is used during the surgery. Make sure to discuss this with your surgeon and staff so they are aware of your concern.

Answer: Does a copper IUD need to be removed before breast augmentation? Congratulations on your breast augmentation. In my practice it would not be necessary to remove your copper IUD before elective breast augmentation surgery. The concern about metal is the risk of contact with electrocautery which can cause burning. However cautery will not be used anyplace near your IUD thus in my opinion it is not a risk. However be sure to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.
