NCT00562276 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 578

Summary

The purpose of this multi-center clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of inserting an intrauterine device (IUD) immediately after a suction aspiration procedure compared to inserting the IUD 2-6 weeks after the procedure. This study will also evaluate how satisfied women are with the timing of their IUD placement. Subjects will be able to choose between the Paraguard IUD or the Mirena IUD.

The researchers hypothesize that:

1. the expulsion rates measured at 1, 3 and 6 months will be clinically equivalent with immediate insertion compared with delayed insertion,
2. satisfaction and tolerance of side effects will be higher with immediate IUD insertion compared with delayed insertion, and
3. overall IUD use/continuation rates measured at 1, 3 and 6 months will be higher with immediate IUD insertion compared with delayed insertion.
