ABSTRACT
PIP The article reports on 33 insertions of the progesterone-releasing IUD, Progestasert, in patients aged 17-45 with an average age of 31; most patients had 2 children. Insertion of the device was easy, and the device itself was extremely well tolerated; 12 of the original 33 patients carried the device for more than 24 months, and 5 carried it for more than 36 months. There were no pregnancies, 2 cases of spontaneous expulsion, 2 removals for pelvic pain, and 2 for desire of pregnancy. Not only were there no side effects, but a positive action of the device was noted against genital inflammation, together with marked improvement of mammary tension and intramenstrual occurrence of headache. Vaginal cytology remained normal or it improved.^ieng
