Corrosion of a new coppergold or copperplatinum intrauterine device
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research, 1982AbstractIt has been shown previously that supplementing plastic intrauterine devices (IUDs) with copper wire enhances the antifertility effect of the device. The use of copper intrauterine contraceptive devices, however, is currently limited to two to three years, mainly because of wire fragmentation, which was observed as early as after eight months ...

Serum Copper in Long-Term Users of Copper Intrauterine Devices
Fertility and Sterility, 1980A study was undertaken to determine whether long-term use of a copper intrauterine device (IUD) was associated with any alteration in the serum copper levels and thereby whether absorption of copper from the device in utero could result in copper toxicity.

PERFORATION OF THE UTERUS BY THE COPPER-T AND COPPER-7 INTRAUTERINE CONTRACEPTIVE DEVICES
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1975Abstract. Uterine perforation in patients wearing the Copper‐T and the Copper‐7 intrauterine contraceptive devices has been studied. In Bollnäs, Sweden, three perforations occurred in 1156 insertions of the Copper‐7, and in New York, USA, six perforations occurred in 1153 insertions of the Copper‐T.

Effects of a copper intrauterine device on the morphology of the rat uterus
Virchows Archiv A Pathological Anatomy and Histology, 1978Copper wire was inserted into one uterine horn of nulliparous female rats, and remained in place until the animals were killed 1 month or 3 months post-insertion. The opposite horn and uteri of non-IUD exposed rats served as control tissue. Light microscopy of the horn that contained the device revealed distortion of the uterine lumen, leucocyte ...

Intrauterine device and maternal copper metabolism during lactation☆
Contraception, 2001The effects of intrauterine device (IUD) on maternal copper (Cu) metabolism during breastfeeding was studied in 95 volunteer mothers who chose to use non-hormonal contraceptive methods. They were divided into two groups that were inserted with the IUD-Cu 380A (n = 33), IUD-Cu 200B (n = 29), and a third group that did not use any IUDs served as control (
