As we have discussed in Temporary Methods of Birth Control - Chemical Methods & IUDs -

  • Types of IUDs
    • Hormone-Releasing IUDs:
      • Progestasert - It is a T shaped IUD made of ethylene and vinyl acetate copolymer containing titanium dioxide. It contains a reservoir of progesterone together with barium sulfate dispersed in silicone fluid. 
      • LNG - 20 (Mirena) - This T shape & device has a collar attached to a vertical arm containing levonorgestrel dispersed in poly dimethyl siloxane.
