The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the types of intrauterine devices (IUDs) and their examples, we can break it down into three parts based on the types of IUDs mentioned in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Non-Medicated IUDs**: - Non-medicated IUDs are devices that do not release any hormones or copper. They primarily work by creating a physical barrier to prevent fertilization. - An example of a non-medicated IUD is the **Lipis loop**. **Answer for Blank 1**: Lipis loop 2. **Identify Copper-Releasing IUDs**: - Copper-releasing IUDs are designed to release copper ions into the uterus, which creates an environment that is toxic to sperm and prevents fertilization. - Examples of copper-releasing IUDs include **Copper T**, **Copper 7**, and **Multiload 375**. **Answer for Blank 2**: Copper T, Copper 7, Multiload 375 3. **Identify Hormone-Releasing IUDs**: - Hormone-releasing IUDs release hormones, primarily progesterone, which helps to prevent fertilization by thickening cervical mucus and reducing sperm motility. - Examples of hormone-releasing IUDs include **Progesterone** and **LNG (Levonorgestrel)**. **Answer for Blank 3**: Progesterone, LNG ### Final Answers: 1. **Blank 1**: Lipis loop 2. **Blank 2**: Copper T, Copper 7, Multiload 375 3. **Blank 3**: Progesterone, LNG ---
