Abstract
In a randomized prospective study of three copper-containing IUDs, those women who terminated contraception in order to become pregnant were studied for return of fertility. The gross cumulative pregnancy rate was 79.3 after 11 months and 90.4 after 23 months of observation. There were no significant differences in the return of fertility related to the type of IUD, duration of use, parity or maternal age. However, parous women showed a tendency to initiate pregnancy more easily than nulliparous women (ppp<0,10). A las siete mujeres que no concibieron dentro de los 18 meses después de la remoción del DIU, se les hizo una evaluación de su fertilidad. Más adelante, cinco de estas mujeres se embarazaron luego de ser tratadas con clomifeno. En ningún caso se pudo identificar patología tubaria como única explicación de la infertilidad. Después de 35 meses en observación, 95 de las 97 usuarias previas de DIU, han concebido. El uso de DIU con cobre no parece afectar la fertilidad subsiguiente en mujeres que poseen relaciones estables.Keywords
