Clinical Trial Summary

This is a pilot study designed to test the effectiveness of several techniques for intrauterine device (IUD) self-removal and to understand patient preferences regarding IUD self-removal and indicators of success as well as understanding the impacts of IUD self-removal on other clinical care.


Clinical Trial Description

The Investigators propose to test a novel method for self-removal of IUDs in an effort to increase the proportion of patients who are able to successfully and safely remove their IUD when desired. Participants will attempt self-removal in office, where a provider will be able to remove the IUD if unsuccessful. Participants will be instructed on current and novel techniques and the investigators will examine indicators of success as well as patient and provider preferences. ;
