I have anemia 6 months now, in the mean time i got myself a copper spiral 2 not get pregnant. is anemia and a copper spiral harmful in combination?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Copper spiral is okay in the presence of anemia. Do consult a doctor to ascertain the cause of anemia and treat the cause. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine.
