How does Copper TT380 Slimline work?
IUDs are devices prevent pregnancy by changing how sperm cells move. They make it impossible or at the very least extremely difficult for the fertilizing cells to get to the egg. With the Copper T380A Slimline, the effects are even more effective with how copper is wrapped around the vertical stem of the IUD. Sperm cells naturally have an aversion to the metal, so the product makes it even more effective at blocking them out. Studies have even shown that as long as the urine pregnancy test comes out negative before inserting or placing the IUD inside, this copper IUD is likely to be effective at any point of the menstrual cycle.
Treatment Details
The Copper TT380 Slimline is loaded into the insertion tubing arms folded, with the solid white rod attached into the bottom of it. It is advanced to a point where the rod actually touches the bottom of the IUD itself. The insertion tube should be help open and the blue flange ensured that it is level to where the uterus sounds. The arms of the IUD should be parallel to the long axis of the blue flange. The loaded tube should then be passed through the cervical canal, until resistance is met. The tube should then be withdrawn approximately 1cm and then the IUD is released. The white rod should then be gently removed, followed by the tube. The excess thread should be cut, with only 3cm visibly extending from the external cervical os.
How long does it last?
The Copper TT380 Slimline protects from pregnancy for up to 10 years, but this will still depend on the patient and their lifestyle and physiology.
