Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To investigate whether vaginal dinoprostone administered before intrauterine device (IUD) insertion reduces failed insertions, insertion-related complications, and pain in multiparous women.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Women may experience pain and technical difficulties may be encountered when insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD) is attempted through a narrow cervical canal.IUD insertion- related complications and side effects are more common among women who had never delivered vaginally. Pain can be perceived during all steps of IUD insertion including the application of the tenaculum to the cervical lip, sounding the uterus and advancing the IUD introducer through the cervical canal inside the uterine cavity
