About this study

Official title: Comparison of Vaginal Misoprostol and Dinoprostone and Isonicotinic Acid Hydrazide Prior to Copper Intrauterine Device Insertion in Nulliparous Women : a Randomized Controlled Study

To compare the effect of vaginal dinoprostone versus vaginal misoprostol and Isonicotinic Acid Hydrazide administered before the copper intrauterine device(IUD) insertion in reducing IUD inertion pain and the difficulty in inserting the IUD in nulliparous women.

Read the detailed description

Long-acting reversible contraception methods are highly effective methods for reduction of the unplanned pregnancy rate worldwide. The intrauterine device is a single procedure that provides reliable, effective and long term contraception for many women. However, the insertion procedure can be associated with a troublesome degree of pain that prevent some women from choosing its use. Different interventions have been described to decrease pain perception during intrauterine device insertion with no agreement on an effective one.

Being tested
Isonicotinic Acid Hydrazide, dinoprostine, misoprostol

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The difference in visual analog scale pain scores during intrauterine device insertion

    The difference in pain scores during intrauterine device insertion using visual analog scale from 0 to 10

    Measured: 10 minuts

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. the difference in visual analog scale pain scores during tenaculum application

    The difference in pain scores during tenaculum application using a visual analog scale from 0 to 10

    Measured: 10 minuts

  2. the ease of IUD insertion

    the ease of IUD insertion using ease of insertion score from 0 to 10 cm (0 = very easy insertion, 10 cm = terribly difficult insertion)

    Measured: 10 minutes

  3. women's satisfaction level: score

    women's satisfaction level using satisfaction score from 0 to 10 cm where 0 denotes no satisfaction and 10 denotes maximum satisfaction

    Measured: 10 minutes
