Summary

As intrauterine contraception is an increasingly popular form of contraception the objective of our study is to examine if uterine size or posture affects the insertion or use of intrauterine devices. Nulliparous women requesting either the levonorgestrel-releasing device (LNG-IUS) or a copper-IUD (NovaT) are recruited and followed for one year.
