Résumé :
|
The first year after intrauterine device (IUD) insertion is crucial with regard to discontinuation. Most removals were attributed to dislocation and affected mainly younger women. Dislocations occurred more rarely in levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) users and the rate decreased over time. The authors recommend follow-up within the first 6-12 months, especially in young women. Structured counselling and consideration of risk factors for dislocation may reduce removal rates for adverse events and dislocations.
