Abstract

Background: Cervical cancer is a global public health issue that requires early management and has a causal relationship with the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). HPV types 16 and 18, which cause around 70% of precancerous lesions and cervical malignancies, are
the two high-risk HPVs. According to research on intrauterine devices, they do not affect the prevalence of HPV infection, but rather its development to cervical cancer. Many research on intrauterine devices (IUDs) reveal that they cannot change the prevalence of HPV infection,but they can change the progression of cervical cancer. Objective: The goal of this study was to look at the relationship between recent IUD use (by type) and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia .Conclusion: Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are among the most successful means of contraception available today, with failure rates comparable to other forms of sterilization.IUDs have various advantages, including efficacy, ease of use, reversibility, and patient satisfaction, especially when it comes to time commitment for long-term use and cost. In addition, the influence of contraception on the development of precancerous cervix lesions
and cervical cancer may provide information useful to women in making contraceptive decisions.
