Copper IUD

Copper Intrauterine Devices (IUDs) offer hormone-free, effective birth control. These T-shaped devices, inserted into the uterus, use copper's natural properties to prevent fertilization. Unlike hormonal methods, they provide contraception through a non-hormonal mechanism, appealing to those avoiding hormones. With a failure rate below 1%, copper IUDs provide robust protection against unintended pregnancies, allowing women to embrace their natural cycle. While effects like slightly heavier periods vary, copper IUDs cater to diverse reproductive histories, even for those never pregnant. Empowering with up to 10 years of hormone-free use, they enable women to manage reproductive health autonomously without daily adjustments.
