Abstract
A total of 33 nulliparous women aged between 18 and 35 have been observed for related symptoms following insertion of an intrauterine contraceptive device. Seventy-five percent suffered some abdominal pain initially but this was reduced to 1% by the end of the week. The symptoms of cramp and backache showed a similar trend. There was no relationship between symptoms and the day of the cycle on which insertion was performed. It is concluded that careful insertion of the Copper-7 in this group of patients is well tolerated irrespective of the day of cycle on which insertion is performed. The initial dynamic response following IUCD insertion may be an additional factor in the assessment of the performance of an individual intrauterine contraceptive device.Entities:
