A member asked:
If i want to get an iud implanted is it generally safe with no risks or is an iud something that can be rejected by my body? i'm looking towards getting a long term contraceptive?

There are several options and generally rejection of the IUD is not very common. ParaGard is a non-hormonal IUD which is an excellent long-term contraceptive device. Others such as Nexplanon or Mirena are hormones (progestins) containing IUDs…So you may want to discuss with your gynecologist about trying oral progestins first to see if you tolerate that substance. Good luck

Agree with Dr.N. Visit this site for information and discuss the matter with your doctor to determine the appropriate contraception for you. Contraception method: https://www.cdc.gov/reproductivehealth/contraception/index.htm
