Type: FSRH Clinical Guidance and Clinical Statements
There is a current shortage of banded copper intrauterine devices (Cu-IUDs) licensed for 10 years of use for contraception. This is thought to be due to a shortfall in global copper supply and may also start to affect other types and brands of Cu-IUD.
The published FSRH statement provides guidance to support clinical practice during copper intrauterine shortages.
