Intrauterine devices (IUDs), also categorized as intrauterine systems (IUSs), are long-acting reversible contraceptive medical devices and drug-device combination products inserted into the uterine cavity by a healthcare provider.
They primarily function either through non-hormonal copper-mediated local inflammatory responses that impair sperm motility and viability, or via continuous local release of a progestin (such as levonorgestrel) that thickens cervical mucus, inhibits sperm function, and suppresses endometrial proliferation.
Beyond their primary therapeutic role in long-term and emergency pregnancy prevention, hormonal intrauterine systems are also clinically indicated and widely utilized for the management of heavy menstrual bleeding and endometrial protection during hormone replacement therapy.
