Question

Intra-Uterine Devices (IUDs) stop fertilisation.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B

False

Intra-uterine devices do not stop fertilisation, they prevent the implantation of the embryo on the wall of the uterus. An intrauterine device (IUD), also known as an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD or ICD) or coil, is a small, often T-shaped birth control device that is inserted into a woman's uterus to prevent pregnancy. IUDs are one form of long-acting reversible birth control.
