Copper T Insertion – Dr-sandhya

Copper T insertion is putting in an IUD (intrauterine device) of copper into the uterus. The small, T-shaped, non-hormonal contraceptive is a very effective long-term, reversible contraceptive (LARC). Copper ions released therein promote an inflammatory response in the uterus, making it toxic to sperm and eggs; thus, it acts primarily to prevent fertilisation. It also influences the endometrium lining, becoming inhospitable to implantation in case of fertilisation. A copper T can prevent pregnancy continuously for 10-12 years once inserted by a healthcare professional.

<strong>Significant causes of Copper T insertion:</strong>

<li><strong>Long-term Contraception:</strong>: The Copper T is best when it comes to an efficient, long-lasting birth control without a daily hassle. Its stability (up to 12 years) fits the needs of individuals who want to put spacings between pregnancies or individuals who have reached the number of children they want.</li>

Significant causes of Copper T insertion:

Non-Hormonal Contraception Choice:: Doctors will also want to offer a reliable alternative born of non-hormonal sources to those who cannot take the hormonal birth control (because of medical conditions, e.g., some cardiovascular risks, hormone-sensitive cancers) or who prefer to avoid hormonal methods altogether: the Copper T.

Emergency Contraception:The Copper T can serve as a condom that can be inserted up to five days after unprotected intercourse. In this form, it becomes the most effective form of emergency contraception, making it then a form of long-term contraception.

Lactating Women:The Copper T is a safe and effective choice even when a woman is breastfeeding, since it does not affect the milk supply and composition, which is the problem with some hormonal methods.

Impacts of Copper T insertion:

Very Highly Effective Pregnancy Prevention:: The main impact is that it is highly effective in preventing pregnancy (over 99%) without having to make the effort of using it daily, giving peace of mind.

Immediate and Rapid Reversibility:Copper T is easy to insert and starts to work at once. In addition, fertility can stabilise quickly back to baseline after the device is eliminated, which means rapid switching between not being fertile and being very fertile when needed.

Changes in Menstrual Bleeding:One change most people will notice before their intermittent fasting is a change in the menstrual cycle. Due to the increase in the menstrual flow, many users notice heavier, longer, and potentially more painful periods as well, particularly in the first few months after insertion. This usually gets better as time passes, but it may be the cause of discontinuation for some.

Possibility of Minimal Side Effects and rare Complications:It is generally safe, but few people may experience cramps, period spotting and backaches in the early stages. There are rare (and severe) complications, such as uterine perforation during insertion (very low risk, <1 in="in" 1000="1000">
