Essential Knowledge

This section presents the latest biomedical, social science, and programmatic knowledge about the Copper-T 380A (TCu-380A) IUD as of January 2006.

The Toolkit organizers have tried to update information and reduce inconsistencies within the various documents contained in the Toolkit. However, if a statement contained elsewhere in the Toolkit is at variance with the information contained in this summary of essential knowledge about the IUD, the information in this section should take precedence.
