The user asked if the insertion of a hormonal intrauterine device (IUD) would have the same cardiac effects as the pill. Hormonal IUDs release only progestin, which is not associated with the same cardiovascular risks as the hormones in the pill. However, it is important to note that copper IUDs do not contain hormones and may cause cramps and heavier bleeding initially, while hormonal IUDs may cause side effects typical of hormonal contraception such as breast tenderness and headaches. It is important to discuss any concerns or questions about switching to an IUD with a healthcare provider.
