Nitrous Oxide for Pain Management of Intrauterine Device Insertion in Nulliparous Women
نویسنده
چکیده
IUDs are exceptional methods of contraception. They do not require daily use and are, therefore, “forgettable” and yet also boast very low failure rates. Women are increasingly interested in these methods of contraception. Yet, evidence has shown that nulliparous women may experience more pain than multiparous women at the time of IUD insertion, typically a moderate pain level. This pain may present a barrier to uptake of these methods.
