Summary

To determine the utility of ultrasound guided IUD insertion compared to the traditional blind insertion at an academic health institute where the skill level of the provider can vary greatly. We hypothesize that ultrasound-guided insertion will lead lower IUD discontinuation rates and greater patient satisfaction.
