The gynecologist and Medical Director of OCON Healthcare, Ilan Baram, is the one who invented the IUB Ballerine intrauterine device as an alternative to rigid, T-shaped IUDs. He has two daughters and wanted to ensure access to innovative contraceptive methods for them.
The IUB™ device, made from a super-elastic nitinol alloy, is an ideal option for hormone-free, intrauterine contraception and does not rely on the use of hormones or other medications.
IUB™ Ballerine®
IUB Ballerine is a hormone-free contraceptive method that provides effective protection for up to 5 years. It works on the same principle as other intrauterine devices, preventing pregnancy locally within the uterus.
An innovative product that places patient health and comfort at the forefront, IUB Ballerine is the first and only spherical intrauterine device that does not contain hormones. The device adapts to the shape of the uterus, reducing the risk of perforation and minimizing the possibility of endometrial irritation. Compared to T-shaped IUDs, IUB Ballerine is 50% smaller.
Thanks to high-tech materials with shape memory, IUB Ballerine is a flexible device that adapts within the uterine cavity. In addition, compared to traditional T-shaped IUDs, its unique spherical design reduces the risk of malposition within the uterus. It features the thinnest insertion tube, ensuring a smoother and less painful insertion procedure. IUB Ballerine has an efficacy rate of over 99%.
A dedicated platform has also been developed for long-term, reversible contraception, where physicians can undergo online training to become experts in inserting the innovative IUB Ballerine device, while patients can learn more about its benefits.
