Can the copper iud cause my hair to stop growing because of the iron?, and what can i do to help it grow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
? iron ?: What about a copper IUD makes you think it has any iron involved, or anything to do with your hair ? These products have been around since the 70's and are made of copper (not iron). Your hair issue is something unrelated. Please see your primary doc or a dermatologist to sort that out.
