A member asked:
I am 34 years old.. i wish to permanently stop pregnancy... can i opt to put iud every 10 years till menopause or do tubal ligation.. as iud is less expensive than surgery.. kindly advice?

It is safe to use IUDs to prevent pregnancy until menopause. This is a reversible method of contraception. Tubal ligation would be a permanent method. The effectiveness of either method is above 99%.
