What is IUS? IUD?: If you mean iud (intrauterine device) used as a longterm form of contraception, then yes, maca is fine. While i cannot speak about uk laws, manufacture ; sales of dietary supplements in states is unregulated quality is of concern. Always a good idea to discuss your nutrition (including natural, organic herbal dietary supplements) and medications (otc ; prescription) w/your family doc.
