Why is it important to not partaken in sexually risky behavior if you have an IUD?
While an IUD is highly effective in preventing pregnancy, it does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

It's important to use additional protection, such as condoms, to reduce the risk of both pregnancy and STIs.
Can you get chlamydia if you have an IUD?
The course differs for different people. If a woman has chlamydia when the IUD is inserted, the risk of PID is quite high.

However, most women should avoid IUDs unless they're in a committed relationship, and should make sure she and her partner are tested before exchanging potentially infectious fluids.

Monogamy is not necessarily a "requirement" for placement of an IUD. However, it is VERY highly recommended that you be in a monogamous relationship, as IUDs do not offer protection from STDs (sexually transmitted diseases), and complication rates increase DRAMATICALLY in the event a woman contracts an STD with an IUD in place. These complications can include pelvic inflammatory disease, scarring, and infertility to name a few. If you have an IUD and have multiple sexual partners, you will additionally need to use condoms to protect from STDs.
