Differential Effects of the Hormonal and Copper Intrauterine Device on the Endometrial Transcriptome [PDF]

, 2020
The contraceptive effectiveness of intrauterine devices (IUDs) has been attributed in part to a foreign body reaction in the endometrium. We performed this study to better understand mechanisms of action of contraceptives of by studying their effects on ...

Reduction of the "burst release" of copper ions from copper-based Intrauterine Devices (IUD) by organic inhibitors [PDF]

, 2012
The copper intrauterine device is a contraceptive method that is based on the release of copper ions from a copper wire. Immediately after insertion, the dissolution of copper in the uterine fluid is markedly higher ("burst release") than that necessary ...

Menstrual cup use and intrauterine device expulsion in a copper intrauterine device randomized trial

Contraception
To evaluate menstrual cup use and intrauterine device (IUD) expulsion.We performed a secondary analysis of a 3-year contraceptive efficacy trial comparing two copper 380 mm2 IUDs. Investigators randomized participants approximately 1:4 to the TCu380A or NTCu380-Mini IUD.
