where are intrauterine devices (iuds) placed in a woman's body
Intrauterine device An intrauterine device (IUD), also known as intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD or ICD) or coil,[2] 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.[3]
Urethra In anatomy, the urethra (from Greek οὐρήθρα – ourḗthrā) is a tube in placental mammals that connects the urinary bladder to the urinary meatus for the removal of fluids from the body. In males the urethra travels through the penis, and carries semen as well as urine.[1] In females, the urethra is shorter and emerges at the urinary meatus above the vaginal opening.
