Experience with Two Different Medicated Intrauterine Devices: A Comparative Study of the Progestasert and Nova-T

Fertility and Sterility, 1979
A comparative study of the Progestasert (UPS) and the Nova-T in 326 randomly selected women was carried out. The observation period was 1 year. The over-all continuation rates for the two types of intrauterine devices (IUDs) were similar. The expulsion rate for the Nova-T (9.2%) was considerably higher (P = 0.001) than that for the UPS (1.2%).
