Same goes for the Lippes Loop IUD! NO chemicals, no hormones, no metal, no pointy edges. Just a curved piece of plastic with the same efficacy rate as hormonal BC! And you can't even GET the damned thing anymore!in my very narrow view I dont think womens sexual health is regarded as a big seller like mens
viagra may cause MI? market it up!
whatever...its aggravating
look how long bcp remained exactly the same for so many yrs
which btw.....screw bcp! talk about libido killer
I'll take the copper iud over it anyday ....which is a good example too...
both sides of the coin, barely redeveloped, taken off the market for a minority of incidents
pfft.....the fda isa bunch of sexist bastards
ANYTHING in your uterus basically turns the environment hostile. The rate of catching pregnant is equivalent to the pill, and if you DO catch preg. 85% of the time when they remove the IUD you spontaneously miscarry, anyway. It's a win/win. The problem with IUDs is that they cause virtually all women some increased bleeding and cramping. That's why they started adding hormones, to reduce those side effects. But the fact is, IUDs don't need hormones to be effective.
As for hormonal BC, horrible shit and most women have NO idea how much damage is being done to their mood, libido, body composition, not to mention stroke risk, I just typed a report about a woman in her 30s, zero stroke risk factors other than being on the pill, had a couple of small strokes, one on top of the other, now she's walking with a cane and you can mostly understand her when she speaks. If MEN had to be responsible for birth control I wonder what kind of side effects or dangers would be considered acceptable risks?
