Intrauterine device use is safe among nulligravidas and adolescent girls

M. Valeria Bahamondes et al.

Summary: The use of intrauterine devices (IUDs), including the copper-bearing device and the levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUS), is safe and effective for nulligravidas and adolescent girls, but misconceptions and limitations exist. Adolescents have higher rates of expulsion due to bleeding and/or pain, indicating a lower acceptance of IUD-induced side effects compared to adults. Studies have shown the effectiveness of IUD/IUS as a contraceptive method independent of age and parity, but more research is needed to definitively establish their role in long-term contraception for this specific demographic.

Rates of Intrauterine Device Expulsion Among Adolescents and Young Women

Laura Keenahan et al.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the rate of intrauterine device (IUD) expulsion and associated risk factors among adolescents and young adults. Results showed a higher risk of IUD expulsion in this population, especially among those with a history of abnormal uterine bleeding, anemia, bleeding disorder, or elevated body mass index. It is important to counsel these individuals about the increased risk of expulsion associated with these conditions.
