I was wondering if anyone knows the short-term and long-term effects of an I.U.D. copper implant that prevents pregnancy in a female?is copper dangerous to a female and males health?what exactly makes it dangerous, if so?
I know that copper is poisonous to bugs - so water from copper pipes has been more purified that from other pipes. And IUD of copper probably murders the sperms to some degree - but an IUD just works by being physically in the way of conception. You need copper in very tiny amounts - you'll find it in many multiple vitamins. Larger amounts are probably somewhat poisonous, but I'm not sure how much. I doubt that a copper IUD would be poisonous to the girl who was using it. It just doesn't give off that many copper atoms.
