Flexi-300-copper-IUD Information
Flexi-300-copper-IUD is a contraceptive device that is inserted into the uterus. It is a T-shaped intrauterine device that prevents the sperm from fertilizing the eggs, thus preventing a pregnancy. It can also stop eggs that have already been fertilized from developing inside the uterus. It is a very effective method of contraception that can be used for as long as 5 years without any complications. A doctor can insert the device in a matter of minutes. This can be done with or without an anesthesia. An IUD insertion is easiest in women who have had a vaginal childbirth.
Description of Flexi-300-copper-IUD
There are two kinds of IUDs: copper and hormonal. Flexi-300-copper-IUD is a copper IUD. It provides protection for up to 5 years after insertion. The presence of copper in the device kills the sperm. It does so by making the fallopian tubes and the uterus release certain chemicals that kill the sperm. This fluid consists of copper ions, white blood cells, prostoglandins and enzymes. It can also be used as an emergency contraceptive in case you have recently had unprotected sex and plan to continue using the device for birth control.
In many cases, the IUD slips out a few days after it is inserted. The doctor may want to inspect you within 4-6 weeks after it is inserted. You can feel the string attached to the IUD since it almost hangs out of your cervix. Check for the string to see if the device is in place after each period. Copper IUDs can be used for as long as 10 years.
Advantages of Flexi-300-copper-IUD
When you buy Flexi-300-copper-IUD, you can be protected against an accidental pregnancy for about 5 years. It is more cost effective than taking pills on a daily basis. When you choose to have a baby, the device can be easily removed by a doctor. Flexi-300-copper-IUD poses less risk of ectopic pregnancies as well.
How Flexi-300-copper-IUD Works
For any pregnancy to occur, the female egg needs to be fertilized by the male sperm. Flexi-300-copper-IUD works by preventing this very action. In case fertilization has already occurred, the device stops the fertilized egg from growing inside the uterus. The copper in the contraceptive kills the sperm effectively.
Safety & Precautionary Information
There are some chances of the device slipping out in the first year. This can happen due to many reasons, such as if the device was inserted right after delivery, if it has fallen out previously, or if the woman has never become pregnant in the past. There is also a slight risk of pelvic inflammatory disease. After you buy Flexi-300-copper-IUD, you may experience a heavy and painful menstrual cycle. You must use this device with caution if you have an infection of the vagina or cervix, a bleeding disorder, take blood thinners, have abnormalities of the uterus, and have uterine bleeding due to unknown reasons. The device will not help prevent AIDS, HIV or any other sexually transmitted disease. You have to use a condom to have safe sex. Flexi-300-copper-IUD is considered safe for use by lactating mothers.
