ABSTRACT
PIP: The factors associated with 137 cases of IUD expulsion or early removal due to complications were investigated in a case-control study conducted at an Italian family planning clinic. The 454 controls were women who did not experience adverse IUD outcomes. Complications in the study group included: bleeding (35%), expulsion (13%), pregnancy (13%), pelvic pain (15%), and pelvic inflammatory disease (24%). The majority of complications occurred 6-12 months after IUD insertion. Previous IUD use and the type of IUD inserted were unrelated to outcome. Most significant in terms of outcome was parity. There was a statistically significant (p .001) difference between the percentage of nulliparae in the study group (34%) compared with the control group (17%). Although most of the nulliparae in the study group were under 20 years of age, age did not have a significant correlation with IUD outcome. Pelvic inflammatory disease was significantly more prevalent in women under 30 years of age, while excessive bleeding was more common in cases above this age.
