SUMMARY ANSWER The use of misoprostol at a dose of 400 碌g administered vaginally 4 h prior to IUD insertion increased the ease of insertion and reduced the incidence of pain during the procedure, although the frequency of cramps increased following misoprostol use. WHAT IS KNOWN AND WHAT THIS...
Objective: The aim of the study was to assess whether vaginal administration of misoprostol before copper intrauterine device (IUD) insertion increased the success of the procedure among parous women with previous insertion failure. Methods: A single-centre, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-...
Cervical priming with sublingual misoprostol prior to insertion of an intrauterine device in nulliparous women: a randomized controlled trial.
