Upsilon
Upsilon
What Upsilon stands for:
• Provide an alternative non-hormonal LARC (Long-Acting Reversible Contraceptive)
solution to women globally, regardless of socioeconomic status or region of the
world
• Easily accessible
• Less painful, easier insertion/removal
• Fewer adverse effects
• Inert, leave in longer than 5 years (current IUD lifespan) since no active component
• Cheaper to manufacture and purchase
The Upsilon IUD provides individuals with more contraceptive options and power to
choose for the benefits of their own bodies, while also reducing the risk of pregnancy for those
who currently struggle with contraception. The Upsilon is more than just a simple foreign object
to the body. While the advancements of contraception have provided an extremely useful resource
for many women, particularly in developed nations, many more remain unable to participate for
various reasons, including lack of access and personal medical issues.
