Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Intrauterine Device Insertion

All womens will be placed in a gynecological position and underwent a bimanual examination to better determine whether the uterus was in the anteverted or retroverted position. Subsequently, a speculum will be inserted, and the cervix will be disinfected with betadine. In the conventional method: the anterior lip of the cervix is grasped and pulled with Pozzi forceps, and after entering the uterine cavity with a hysterometry the IUD is inserted. In the direct method: the anterior lip of the cervix is grasped and pulled with Pozzi forceps, and without using hysterometry the IUD is directly inserted. The strings will be cut approximately 2-3 cm after the cervix, and the Pozzi forceps and speculum will be removed. The accuracy of the IUD placement will be confirmed using pelvic ultrasound. The process will take about five minutes.
