Coil Fitting and Removal (IUD/IUS): Everything You Need To Know
As a reversible form of birth control that can last up to 10 years, coil fitting – be it IUD or IUS – has become a popular choice of birth control worldwide. It is cost-effective and hassle-free. More importantly, it doesn’t involve any elaborate procedure. There are two types of coil available; Copper Coil (which contains copper) and Mirena Coil (which contains the hormone progestogen).
Which type of coil is best for you will depend on the heaviness of your periods and how many years you want it to last. The insertion process is simple while the pain experienced during the process will vary from woman-to-woman.
