Which is NOT true about the intrauterine contraceptive (IUC)?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

To begin, let's list what we know about intrauterine contraception (IUC): it provides long-term pregnancy protection and can be removed when desired, there are two main types (hormonal and copper), and insertion/removal is performed by a trained health care professional. 
Option 1: 'It provides several years of pregnancy protection and can be removed at any time.' This is true: IUDs last for several years but can be taken out earlier by a clinician if the user chooses. 
Option 2: 'Spermicide is needed to use this method.' This is not true: IUCs do not require spermicide to function; they create a physical or chemical environment to prevent fertilization, but spermicides are not required for the device to work and are not routinely necessary. Relying on spermicide with an IUD would be a misconception. 
Option 3: 'It comes in two types, one hormonal and one not.' This is true: the hormonal type releases levonorgestrel, while the copper IUD is non-hormonal. 
Option 4: 'It must be inserted and removed by a health care provider.' This is true: placement and removal must be performed by a trained clinician. 
In summary, only option 2 contains an incorrect claim about the IUC, making it the statement that is NOT true.
