IUB SCu 300 (interuterine ball)
When it comes to reversible long term contraception there 2 options: intrauterine device (IUD) and implanon.
The IUB SCu is the latest reincarnation of the IUD. It has shaken up the world of IUD's due to it's linear revolutionary form (string of small copper pearls). This is different from the typical T-shape seen with other IUD's. The shape may reduce implantation and post-implantation pain. It is non-hormonal. This means that you'll still have your periods every month.
The cost of this IUD in Belgium is 139.75 euros and it is designed to last for 5 years
Placement is best done during your periods and after appropriate counseling from your gynecologist
