The copper and hormonal IUDs are equally safe in terms of side effects and pregnancy risk. You can choose based on your preference for continuing your current pattern of menstruation, or choosing no periods with the hormonal IUD.

What is the hormonal IUD contraceptive method?
Hormonal IUD is an effective contraceptive method. The IUD (levonorgestrel intrauterine device) is a hormonal method. It is a small, T-shaped piece of plastic. The IUD is put into the uterus. Once there, it makes the lining of the uterus thinner and thickens the mucus of the cervix. This prevents the sperm from fertilizing the egg. IUDs offer 3, 4 or 5 years of protection (depending on the type). If you want to get pregnant, you can have the IUD removed. IUD are one of the most effective methods. 99 in every 100 individuals using this method will manage to prevent pregnancy. To know more visit findmymethod.org website.
