Episode description

On Feb 24, 2025, the FDA granted approval for MIUDELLA®, a hormone-free, low-dose copper IUD developed by US manufacturer Sebela Women's Health Inc (Georgia) for contraceptive use in females of reproductive potential for up to 3 years. MIUDELLA® utilizes a small, flexible nitinol frame and contains less than half the copper of currently available copper IUD. Where have we seen nitinol before?? How does this compare with the traditional ParaGard IUD? Can this be used for emergency contraception? In this episode, we will review this novel design, low-dose copper IUD with a summary of its new published article released March 2025 (Contraception).
