4. What is the relation between menoragis period and IUD acceptor by the Woman ?

1. Hormone-releasing IUD The hormone-releasing IUD contains a synthetic version of progesterone called progestin, which is continuously released at a low daily dose. Progestin works to prevent pregnancy in several ways: it thickens cervical fluid to prevent sperm from travelling into the uterus, thins the uterine lining, and also sometimes suppresses ovulation.

How will my period change on the hormonal IUD? • Since the hormonal IUD thins the uterine lining and may inhibit ovulation (the release of an egg from the ovary) your period is likely to be different. Two out of three hormonal IUD users experience lighter bleeding within six months

2. Copper intrauterine device (IUDs) The copper IUD is a device that is inserted into the uterus by a medical professional. Like the hormonal-IUD, the copper IUD also causes physical irritation, creating an inflammatory reaction in the uterus

• How will my period change on the copper IUD? The copper IUD does not prevent ovulation, so you will still experience a menstrual period. But it is common for people to experience heavier or longer periods, as well as unscheduled spotting or bleeding, during the first few months of use. Heavier menstrual flow with copper IUDs might be caused by vascular changes, which regulate blood flow to the uterus.
