1 Answer
Lippes Loop is a type of intrauterine device (IUD) used for contraception. It is a small, flexible, plastic device that is inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. The Lippes Loop is shaped like a double 'S' and works by creating an environment in the uterus that is inhospitable to sperm and fertilized eggs, thereby preventing implantation and pregnancy.
