Trial Outcomes & Findings for Levonorgestrel Contraceptive Intrauterine Systems (LCS) Pearl Index Study (NCT NCT00528112)

NCT ID: NCT00528112

Last Updated: 2017-01-25

Results Overview

The unadjusted Pearl Index (PI) is defined as the number of pregnancies per 100 woman years. The 3-year PI was obtained by dividing the number of pregnancies that occurred during the first three years of treatment by the time (in 100 women years) that the women were at risk of getting pregnant.
