Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
It is best to abstain from sex for 6 weeks after childbirth.
You can have the Copper T inserted straight after birth.
you can alternatively have it inserted 6 weeks after childbirth, irrespective of whether your period resumes or not.
It is quite safe.
Many women now prefer Multiload which avoids side effects of copper T and has hormonal content.
All the best
