Copper T (Emergency Contraception)

The Copper T is a small, T-shaped intrauterine device made of plastic and copper. It is a long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) method used for family planning. Once inserted into the uterus by a healthcare professional, it prevents pregnancy by releasing copper ions, which interfere with sperm motility and fertilization of the egg. It can provide contraception for up to 10 years, depending on the specific model.
