Brief Explanations
Intrauterine devices (IUDs) exist in two types: copper IUDs (barrier/mechanical, using copper to impair sperm) and hormonal IUDs (releasing progestin to thicken cervical mucus and prevent ovulation). Male/female condoms are only barrier methods; birth control patches are only hormonal. Thus, IUDs fit both categories.
