Which contraceptive device releases 20 micrograms of levonorgestrel daily and is considered a long-acting reversible method?

1. Copper-based IUD
2. Levonorgestrel-releasing IUD
3. Physical barrier method
4. Birth control pills

Correct answer: Levonorgestrel-releasing IUD

Solution

The LNG-20 IUD releases levonorgestrel, a hormone, making it a hormonal IUD. Copper IUDs do not release hormones, and the other options are unrelated to intrauterine devices.
