Product Overview: Lana V CU380AG Intrauterine Device

The Lana V CU380AG, manufactured by SILVER LINE, is a highly effective, long-acting, and reversible contraceptive medical device. This copper intrauterine device (IUD) is designed for women seeking a hormone-free birth control option.

A silver core is often integrated into the copper wire to prevent fragmentation and prolong effectiveness, offering reliable contraception for up to 5 years.

• Cost-effective over its lifespan compared to other contraceptive methods.
• Does not interfere with sexual spontaneity.

How To Use:

The Lana V CU380AG IUD must be inserted by a trained healthcare professional.

1. Consultation: Discuss with your doctor if a copper IUD is the right contraceptive method for you. Your doctor will review your medical history and perform a pelvic examination.
2. Insertion Procedure: The IUD is carefully inserted into the uterus through the cervix, typically during a menstrual period to ensure you are not pregnant and to ease insertion.
3. Post-Insertion Check: Your doctor will ensure the IUD is correctly placed and may provide instructions for checking the IUD strings.
4. Follow-up: A follow-up appointment is usually scheduled a few weeks after insertion to confirm proper placement and address any concerns.
5. Removal: The IUD can be removed by a healthcare professional at any time if you wish to become pregnant or at the end of its effective lifespan.

Caution & Warnings:

• Does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
• May cause heavier and longer menstrual periods, as well as increased menstrual pain, especially in the first few months after insertion.
• Risk of uterine perforation during insertion, though rare.
• Risk of IUD expulsion (the IUD falling out of the uterus), which can lead to unintended pregnancy.
• Risk of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), particularly within the first 20 days after insertion.
• Not suitable for women who are pregnant, have certain uterine abnormalities, or have a current pelvic infection.
• Consult your healthcare provider immediately if you experience severe pain, fever, unusual discharge, or suspect pregnancy.
