Summary
The intrauterine device (IUD) is a reliable, safe, long acting, and effective contraceptive
method . In spite of that, the pain associated with IUD insertion can be a cause against its
insertion. Many researches have been conducted aiming to decrease the degree of pain during
IUD insertion; these studies included medical and also technical methods.
The physicians usually prefer to insert the IUD during women's menses because the women are
very unlikely to be pregnant and the insertion is easier and the pain is lower The easiness
of IUD insertion is a very important issue that can increase women's satisfaction and
decrease insertion pain.
