Copper containing devices Copper T 200, Copper 7, Multiload Copper 250, Copper T 380, Copper T 220 and Nova T have an effective life of about 3-5 years. Copper T 380A, known as Paraguard, has a lifespan of 10 years. Progestase is a T-shaped device carrying 38 mg of progesterone in silicon oil reservoir in the veical stem. It releases 65 mcg of the hormone per day and needs yearly replacement. A new device, levonova, contains 60 mg of levonorgestrel (LNG) and releases the hormone in very low doses (20 mcg/day). It is thus longer acting (5 years). Mirena (32 , 32 mm) contains 52 mg LNG, eluting 20 mcg daily. It can be retained for 5 years.
