Summary

Patients who visited our family planning clinic and opted for IUD application for contraception purposes were also offered NT/TLA treatments simultaneously. 40 patients who matched the inclusion criteria and received IUDs and NT/TLA treatments were included in the study group and 41 patients who only received IUDs were included in the control group. All patients received copper IUDs and none of them were on additional hormonal treatment. Before the insertion of IUD, women in the therapy group received NT treatment with 6ml of 1% procaine injected transvaginal into the cervix at 5 and 7 o'clock localizations. Following IUD insertion, another 6ml of 1% procaine was injected into the Frankenhauser ganglia bilaterally. A final dose of 8ml of 1% procaine was injected into the abdominal trigger points and intracutaneously into the L4-S4 dermatomes as quaddles.
