Answer 1

It is not known whether IUCDs increase the risk of acquiring HIV. The effect of IUCDs on the uterus and cervix may create an environment favourable for HIV transmission. There is the possibility that the intense bleeding associated with the use of IUCDs may increase the transmission of the virus from HIV-positive women to their partners.
