I need information on the copper seven IUD if any one remembers, this was used in the early 1970's and before.

What do you need to know? I had one, and it was awful. They weren't exactly sure how they worked; one theory was that it released minute amounts of copper,another was that the 7 shape kept the egg from implanting. Go look up an early copy of Our Bodies Ourselves. I think Roche made the cu7, but I wouldn't swear to it. Hope this helps.

I have not personally used this product,however, years ago(at least 25) there was a similar product that was briefly on the market and was later taken off. It was a similar looking flexible cup shaped device that worked in the same way as this one, acting as a little receptacle to hold the blood until you remove it. I did use that product and remember liking it. One problem with it was that if you didn't take it out "properly" the contents spill ed all over which was unpleasant. This one pictured appears to be able to be emptied while still in, which would solve that problem. The other thing to think about is the increased chances of tss and uti's that may be likely with this type of product. Then theres the possible reaction to the material, rubber. If I were still menstruating I do not think I would try it simply because I don't like the idea of an internal method. I do think tho that people that like tampons and loathe the "pad" might want to try it.

Your OB-GYN can insert an IUD and you don't have to worry about pregnancy for 5 to 10 years depending on the type used.  It can be removed in the doctor's office without any surgery and little discomfort if you decide you want to become pregnant later.

I have seen it be prescribed as late as 5 days, but at that point (or at 4 days, for that matter) it's pretty ineffective.  The Copper-T IUD is a form of emergency contraception that can be used 5-7 days after unprotected sex, but it is typically fairly hard to find a physician who will insert it in time.  It can't hurt to ask.. pay a visit to your local Planned Parenthood!

Check out this other answer I found on condoms, or this site which is where the answer was pirated from\nhttp://www.pluscondoms.com/history.htm

Wow!\nI cannot believe the ignorance of even doctors!\nCheck out "VCF" of "Vaginal Contraceptive Film" -- it's a bioadhesive which looks like a thin piece of plastic. Unlike suppositories and other spermicides, it isn't messy. You fold it in quarters and then place it over your cervix- and wait about 15 minutes. I have very sensitive skin, and this is the ONLY spermicide/condom-backup which does NOT irritate me. You can find it at WalMart.\n\nOther than spermicides as back up to the condom, there is also the IUD or intrauterine device (which is as effective or more so than the pill).\nI got the copper T about a year ago, and have been very happy with it. It does make your periods heavier and cramping worse for up to 6 months (depending on how your body reacts to it), but if you consider that it can be kept in and effective for up to 10 YEARS.... For me, it was and has been worth it. \n\nAnyway- I hope this helps. I lost my sex drive completely when I was on the pill, and the link below is to some scientific proof that those hormones can permanently lower your sex drive. Info on the IUD and VCF is easy to find.
