How soon after getting an IUD can you have sex?

Bruna

I'm getting Skyla next week on Wednesday and my boyfriend is coming back after his 2 week trip on Friday. Would I still be able to have sex with him or do I have to wait? I heard that if you get an IUD while you're on your period you're already protected.
