IMPORTANT 2023 UPDATE re: IUD DURATION OF USE- US FDA now approves 52mg levonorgestrel IUD (Mirena, Liletta) for 8 YEARS use for contraception. When treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding is the primary indication, best results are usually seen in the first 5 years. Kyleena (19.5mg) is still 5 years. See video #35 for info on copper IUD extended use.

Dr. Kristina Dervaitis, a gynecologist in Newmarket, Ontario (Canada) answers your IUD questions:
What is IUD expulsion?
What are the risk factors, why does it happen?
How can I tell if my IUD has fallen out?
What do I do if I think my IUD has fallen out?
Will I be able to use another IUD if I’ve had an IUD expulsion?
For more information about contraception, I recommend the official sexual health website of the Society of Obstetricians & Gynecologists of Canada (SOGC): www.sexandu.ca
