    Abstract:
    Clinical experiences with the DANA super IUD in 25 women are reporte d. No pregnancy occurred in the study group. Expulsion of the IUD occurred twice; reinsertion 2 months later was successful in both instances. Complications during the first 6 months included adnexitis, endometritis, hypermenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, and breakthrough bleeding. The IUD was removed in 1 case (acute adnexitis, treated with antibiotics). Menstrual complaints disappeared after the first 1-2 months. The authors recommend choosing the largest possible IUD for each woman, complete investigation and treatment of adnexitis before insertion, and strict asepsis during insertion.
