Copper T IUD 380A (Intrauterine Device)

Do’s

• Insertion and removal of the Copper T 380A should only be done by a healthcare provider during an office visit.
• After insertion, schedule a follow-up visit after your first menstrual period to ensure the IUD is in the correct position.
• It's a good practice to check for the IUD strings once a month to confirm its placement. Your healthcare provider will instruct you on how to do this safely.
• Contact your healthcare provider if:
• You suspect the IUD has come out or you can't feel the strings.
• You experience any concerning symptoms (pain, unusual discharge, etc.).
• If the IUD comes out or you're unsure of its placement, use backup birth control (like condoms) until your healthcare provider confirms its position or removes it.
• If you wish to continue using an IUD for birth control after 10 years, the Copper T 380A needs to be replaced with a new one.

Don’ts

• Don't try to insert or remove the IUD yourself. It should only be done by a trained healthcare provider.
