Copper T Fitting

The copper IUD is made of copper and plastic and does not release a hormone. Multiload lasts for up to 5 years and the Copper T (or TT380R) lasts for up to 10 years. The copper IUD works by:

  • making it harder for sperm to reach and fertilize an egg
  • changing the lining of the uterus so that if an egg was fertilized, it still wouldn't be able to attach and develop.

Both types of IUD offer several benefits, which include being:

  • Extremely good at preventing pregnancy
  • Easy to use and maintain
  • Long-lasting and cost-effective
  • Immediately reversible if you decide you want to get pregnant.
