Gynefix Hormone-Free IUD
Gynefix, a new generation, hormone-free IUD (intrauterine device) used by Op. Dr. Ebru Ünal in Istanbul, is a method developed for women who want to prevent pregnancy. This copper-based system, placed after expert evaluation and personalized planning, is designed to occupy very little space in the vagina and uterus. Unlike classic IUDs, this modern approach, applied in a clinical setting, minimizes the risk of displacement or expulsion, providing highly reliable protection for 5 years.
Comfortable Protection and Natural Harmony
Gynefix, thanks to its flexible structure that attaches to the uterine wall, fully adapts to the body's natural movements and does not negatively affect tissue regeneration processes. After application, the uterine tissue retains its natural structure, and because it does not contain hormones, processes such as skin tone equalization continue normally without disrupting the body's own balance.

Hormone-Free Contraception and Effective Approaches
For women who want to avoid hormone replacement therapy or who experience pain and bleeding issues with traditional IUDs, Gynefix is an ideal solution. Suitable candidates for Gynefix include young women who have never given birth, breastfeeding mothers seeking reliable contraception, and individuals who want to avoid excessive menstrual bleeding. Because this practical method is inserted into the uterus like a small earring, its presence is not felt during sports or daily life, maximizing physical comfort.
What is GyneFix and what does it do?
GyneFix is a small, flexible, hormone-free contraceptive method placed inside the uterus. It prevents sperm from reaching the egg and provides highly effective protection against pregnancy for up to 5 years.
How is GyneFix inserted?
It is inserted in a clinical setting within a few minutes after local anesthesia is applied to the cervix. This non-surgical procedure secures the device safely at the top of the uterus.
Why should GyneFix be preferred for hormone-free contraception in Istanbul?
GyneFix used in our clinic in Istanbul is much smaller than traditional T-shaped IUDs and does not irritate the uterus. Therefore, the risk of severe menstrual cramps and heavy bleeding is significantly lower.
