Two years of experience with the Multiload Cu375 in Georgia.

This study was conducted to evaluate the clinical performance of the Multiload Cu375 IUD in 157 healthy women, aged 18-38 years, who had regular sexual intercourse and who wished to avoid pregnancy. The period of observation was 2 years. During 24 months, pain and bleeding was noted in 7 patients (4.4%); IUD expulsion was observed in 4 cases (2.5%) and there was only 1 case (0.6%) of pregnancy. Our conclusion is that the Multiload Cu375 is an excellent method of contraception.
