What are some of the health benefits of IUDs?
The hormonal IUDs (Mirena, Liletta, Kyleena, and Skyla) dramatically reduce bleeding during your period, protecting you from anemia. The IUD can also reduce menstrual symptoms for people who have fibroids. And, if you’re someone who can’t use estrogen, both the hormonal IUD and the non-hormonal, copper IUD are good options for preventing pregnancy.
