IUD, copper chain or copper ball?

Are you in need of a permanent contraception such as a hormonal or copper IUD, a copper chain or a copper ball? Are you looking for information and a trustworthy place where you can insert it?

The team of OBGYN Frauenmedizin am Bundesplatz are experts and always at your side when it comes to contraception. We have many years of experience in advising and inserting IUDs.

IUD

Is an IUD the right choice for me?

Contraception is always a very personal decision. You can find a general overview of all common contraceptives here.


If you are looking for a contraception that is either completely hormone-free or almost hormon free, an IUD is the right choice for you.

The copper or hormonal IUD, the copper chain or copper ball are inserted into the uterine cavity (IUD) and provide very safe and reliable contraception for 3-8 years that you don't have to think about.

 

Young women who have not yet given birth can also use an IUD. There are extra small sizes available.  
Of course, we will advise you before the insertion and examine you carefully to see whether this type of contraception is right for you and which IUD size might fit.

TEAM

What our patients say about us.

Better than expected!

I had the copper coil inserted in the practice. The doctor was very competent, which calmed me down because I was very nervous. Putting it in only took a few minutes and wasn't bad at all. I am very satisfied because I had heard otherwise from friends. Thank you very much!

Super quick and easy

I had a hormonal coil inserted and was a little unsure whether it was a good decision because I came off the pill and didn't really want any more hormones. I am very satisfied now. As promised, the period pain has improved significantly and I don't notice any of the coil. Thanks Dr. Todorovic wasn't that bad at all! She explained everything to me in detail and answered all my questions and the insertion of the IUD was very calm and quick, so that it was already over when I thought the bad part was coming, but as I said, I was already through it. So I found it totally bearable and less painful than I thought.

Sensitive and careful

I had the second copper coil placed today and was very nervous. We used a small model because previously I was in pain all the time with a large model. This is really good now and despite my doubts, I'm really happy now.

FAQ IUD

Frequently asked questions.

  • Can also young women use an IUD?
    Yes, the IUD can also be used by young women.
  • Is pain to be expected during the insertion?
    We perform the insertion as gentle as possible under ultrasound control. However, the sensation of pain varies from woman to woman. Some women report a period-like pain, others only notice a slight pulling sensation, which can last for a few days.
  • How long does an insertion take?
    An insert usually doesn't take too long, but it depends on what anatomical conditions the doctor finds. You can assume that it will take 5-10 minutes.
  • Do I have to have my period to use an insert?
    In principle, we can insert the IUD at any time, but this has to be discussed individually.
  • Can I have an IUD inserted if I have had unprotected sex?
    Yes, in such a case you can have the IUD inserted afterwards, as “morning-after pill (IUD)”. The IUD prevents the implantation of a fertilized egg until the fifth day (= 120 hours after unprotected sex) and is the safest method of emergency contraception with an effectiveness of >99%. The copper chain, the copper ball, the copper IUD can be inserted for this purpose.
  • Can I get pregnant while I am using an IUD?
    Pregnancies while using an IUD are extremely rare, but they can occur. With a copper IUD the frequency is 30 per 1000, with a hormonal IUD the frequency is 3 per 1000, which means that around 3 women out of 1000 women become unintentionally pregnant. For comparison: when using a condom the fequency is180 per 1000 and without any contraception it is 850 per 1000.
  • Is pain common after inserting an intrauterine contraceptive?
    No, it really depends on the size of your uterus and on choosing the right intrauterine contraception for you. Women describe sensations like little period pain from time to time.
  • What costs should I expect?
    There are costs for intrauterine contraception, the preliminary consultation and the insert.
