Contraindications to the use of Tens current include, m.in: - the presence of metal elements in the tissues at the site covered by the procedure, - sensory disturbances, - fever, - tumors, - fresh wounds, inflammation of the skin. The Kyleen IUD contains, m.in, a silver ring that allows the ultrasound IUD to be visible. This is a metal element of the insole, which unfortunately probably prevents the use of a Tens device in the abdominal and lower back area: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/95362/kyleena-przyrzad/ulotka/238361 If you have pains related to sciatica or dysmenorrhea, I encourage you to consult a doctor.
