Liberte sterilet TT380 stand 10 years (Copper IUD)

Additional information

Liberte sterilet TT380 stand 10 years (Copper IUD) is typically inserted for up to 10 years. However, your doctor or pharmacist may have suggested a different schedule that is more appropriate for you. The doctor can prescribe and insert an IUD within the same visit, he will check the size and position of the uterus (major organ of the female reproductive system). The doctor puts a speculum (medical tool) into the vagina so that he can see the cervix (the lower part of the uterus) and check for any infection. Usually freezing is used with a local anesthetic prior to insertion of the IUD. Most women feel a pinching feeling and may experience cramps for a few minutes when the IUD is inserted. Taking ibuprofen an hour before an IUD placement helps reduce cramping. The best time to insert an IUD is during or just after a period, but it can be inserted anytime, as long as you are not pregnant.
WARNING: Menstrual bleeding patterns may be altered with use of the IUD. Unexplained vaginal bleeding should be evaluated prior to insertion. If bleeding irregularities develop during use, appropriate diagnostic measures should be taken to rule out endometrial pathology (abnormality of the lining of the uterus) or displacement of the device. Use caution in patients with severe thrombocytopenia (is a condition in which you have a low blood platelet count. Platelets are colorless blood cells that help blood clot) who may be at risk of spontaneous bleeding. If pregnancy occurs with the device in place, evaluate for an ectopic pregnancy (a pregnancy that happens outside of the uterus). may be used in patients with a history of ectopic pregnancy.
