5 Benefits of Intrauterine Devices (IUDs):
- High contraceptive efficacy: With over 99% effectiveness, the IUD is one of the most reliable long-term contraceptive methods.
- Long duration: Depending on the type, an IUD can last between 3 to 10 years, providing peace of mind without the need to remember a daily pill.
- Reversible method: The IUD can be removed at any time, allowing women to quickly regain fertility if they wish to become pregnant.
- Hormonal and non-hormonal options: Hormonal IUDs can help reduce menstrual bleeding, while copper IUDs provide a hormone-free option.
- Convenience and discretion: Once inserted, the IUD requires no maintenance and does not interfere with daily life, making it a highly discreet and convenient method.

The insertion may cause some discomfort or mild pain, but it is a quick procedure. If preferred, local anesthetics can be applied for added comfort. - How often should I check my IUD?

Yes, the IUD is suitable for women with or without children. Our specialists will guide you based on your individual situation. - When should I remove my IUD?
