Copper IUD

A Copper IUD is a small, T-shaped device inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. Made of plastic and copper, it releases tiny amounts of copper that interfere with sperm’s ability to reach and fertilize an egg. It’s a highly effective, long-acting form of birth control that can last up to 10 years. The Copper IUD is non-hormonal, making it a good option for those wanting to avoid hormones. It is quickly reversible; fertility typically returns soon after removal. It’s a safe, convenient choice for many women seeking reliable contraception.
