Another factor to consider is that when doctors do not know how to implant IUDs (possibly because of their lack of profitability...), they tell women that IUDs are not an option. There is also a misconception that you can't be nulliparous and have an IUD. I think the first step in making contraceptives like IUDs more popular in the states is dispelling the myths about their risks and making upfront cost more widely accessible.

Consider the difference between a one-time $500 charge for a Paragard IUD that will last 10 years and expensive birth control pills which must be purchased on a regular basis for decades. There's just more money to be made off of the pill. When I lived in England, I was surprised to find that IUDs were super popular and they had several options to choose from. It made sense, considering that they have a national healthcare system which focuses on driving down costs. I have had two Paragard IUDs under my TriCare health plan, which is also a universal/single-payer type of system. I love my Paragard and feel great about having such an effective form of birth control that is hormone-free and lasts as long as I want it to last. I really wish they were more popular here.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00210872330159882392noreply@blogger.com
