This special IUD is designed for this purpose and helps women get this effective family planning method before being discharged from the hospital.
It saves women the cost of transporting themselves back to the hospital after 6 weeks for their IUD or getting pregnant soon after delivery while waiting for their period to come. it can prevent pregnancy for up to 10 years but can also be removed at anytime she wants.
Unlike the other LYDIA IUDs, ELOIRA is different in that it contains a hormone-and releases it slowly every day. This special Hormonal type of IUD, can prevent pregnancy for 5 years and some women prefer it because it can also help reduce menstrual pain.
In addition, ELOIRA greatly reduces blood loss during menstruation, hence it is also used to treat women who have heavy and prolonged periods, as well as people with fibroid. This hormonal IUD is ideal for women who do not have health problems like diabetes, heart disease, obesity or cancer.
