Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate patient-reported pain, bleeding, and device efficiency along with provider satisfaction and ease of use between IUD insertions using a suction cervical stabilizer (new device, FDA approved, atraumatic) and single-tooth tenaculum (standard, traumatic). Our aims are to:

* assess and compare patient-reported pain during IUD insertion between the Carevix device and tenaculum.
* assess predictors of pain scores including between nulliparous and multiparous patients
* assess provider-reported ease of use and satisfaction

Participants (including providers) will:

* be randomized to receive one device to complete the IUD procedure
* complete a survey following the procedure
