Abstract
One of our reviewers described this as “an excellent article that should have a wide audience.” Numerous complications, many of which can be avoided by proper patient selection, have been associated with the intrauterine contraceptive device, which was introduced into clinical practice more than 20 years ago. Which patients should not use the IUD? What are the risks associated with its use? How effective is it in preventing pregnancy? This article deals with these and many other questions and provides information concerning therapy for the various problems that may arise.
