An IUD - IntraUterine Device is a Birth Control device (form of contraception) that a health care provider places in your uterus. The IUD can stay in place for 5 to 12 years depending on the type.
The ParaGard IUD contains copper. It is effective for 12 years, it has no drugs the copper prevents an embryo from implanting.
Mirena is made of plastic and gives you a constant low dose of hormones, similar to the BCP or NuvaRing. It prevents pregnancy by suppressing ovulation and making cervical mucus thick.
It's short for "inter-uterine device" a form of birth control where the IUD is inserted into your uterus.
