INTRODUCTION: Contraception is an important tool for helping to prevent both unintended pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Medical costs related to STIs are high and impose a large burden on both patients and the healthcare system. In addition, unintended pregnancies account for a large portion of pregnancies in the United States (US) and are associated with adverse maternal and infant health outcomes. Both STIs and unintended pregnancies are continuous public health concerns, and this study aims to identify patterns in contraceptive method use in relation to specific social determinants of health...

REVIEW

Abnormal uterine bleeding is a frequent symptom in the perimenopause. Causes are numerous, ranging from physiological reactions due to decreasing/unstable ovarian function to premalignant and malignant conditions. Benign findings such as endometrial polyps and myomas increase with age, leading to more abnormal uterine bleeding in the perimenopause. Cervical and vaginal causes of abnormal uterine bleeding should be excluded by speculum examination. Sexually transmitted diseases or pregnancy should be ruled out...

Abnormal uterine bleeding is a common and bothersome symptom in people using hormonal contraception, and it can lead to discontinuation of reliable methods of contraception and unintended pregnancies. Clinicians should counsel individuals about the potential for abnormal bleeding at initiation of the contraceptive method. After considering and excluding other potential causes of abnormal uterine bleeding, clinicians can offer treatment options specific to each hormonal contraceptive method. This article includes algorithms to help clinicians treat abnormal uterine bleeding in people using levonorgestrel intrauterine devices, depo-medroxyprogesterone acetate, progestin implant, progestin-only pills, and combined hormonal contraception...

REVIEW

The majority of women experience dysmenorrhea during their lifetime. The current standard-of-care treatment consists of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, oral contraceptive pills, or intrauterine devices. Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) is a beneficial tool for improving non-musculoskeletal (non-MSK) conditions such as migraines, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and anxiety. OMT should be utilized to improve other non-MSK conditions, such as dysmenorrhea. The current review aims to evaluate the effects of OMT in women with dysmenorrhea...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate differences based on intrauterine device (IUD) frame geometry in force, and stress, and strain at the stem/arms junction during simulated IUD removal. STUDY DESIGN: We manufactured injection-molded frame models for three Nova-T IUDs (Mirena[model M]; Liletta[model L]; Kyleena[model K]) and a Tatum-T IUD (Paragard[model P]) at two-times scaling. We created a custom fixture to simulate the uterus and used a screw-driven machine to pull models at various displacement rates through the 10cm fixture cavity to measure force and strain and calculate stress at the IUD stem/arms junction...

Synthetic progestins in oral contraceptives are thought to blunt heat dissipation by reducing skin blood flow and sweating. However, whether progestin-releasing intrauterine devices (IUDs) modulate heat loss during exercise-heat stress is unknown. We used direct calorimetry to measure whole-body total (dry + evaporative) heat loss in young, physically active women (mean (SD); aged 24 (4) years, <mml:math xmlns:mml="https://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:semantics> <mml:msub><mml:mover><mml:mi>V</mml:mi> <mml:mo>̇</mml:mo></mml:mover> <mml:mrow><mml:msub><mml:mi>O</mml:mi> <mml:mn>2</mml:mn></mml:msub> <mml:mi>peak</mml:mi></mml:mrow> </mml:msub> <mml:annotation>${\dot V_{{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}{\mathrm{peak}}}}$</mml:annotation></mml:semantics> </mml:math> 39...

BACKGROUND: The unmet need for postpartum contraception is a global challenge. Postpartum placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) within 48 hours of vaginal delivery is available in many settings worldwide, but is not routinely practised in Sweden. To improve contraceptive services and facilitate the informed choice of IUD placement at the time of a caesarean section (CS), we performed this study to identify and describe women's experiences of contraceptive services before, during and after an elective CS...

RATIONALE: Uterine perforation is a serious complication of intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD) placement. However, as complete uterine perforation and extrauterine migration may remain asymptomatic, thorough localization of the IUD is important prior to reinsertion. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 33-year-old patient who has had 4 IUD insertions, wherein the location of the first IUD (inserted 14 years ago) was not identified prior to reinsertion and replacement of the subsequent three...

Iliopsoas phlegmon/abscess is uncommon, and individuals often present with nonspecific symptoms. Diagnosis is often delayed and almost always requires advanced imaging techniques such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. We report a case of a 51-year-old woman who presented with right lower limb swelling and associated rash with imaging demonstrating iliopsoas abscess secondary to an infected intrauterine contraceptive device. This rare case highlights the nonspecific presentation of iliopsoas abscess and the need to consider unusual sources of infection such as an intrauterine contraceptive device in women presenting with iliopsoas phlegmon and abscess...

Intrauterine device (IUD) is considered the second most widely used method of contraception. Migration of the IUD into the urinary system has been reported. Nevertheless, a missed IUD which is mistakenly inserted into the bladder has rarely been reported. We report a female patient experienced recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) for 10 years without appropriate evaluation. The underlying problem was an IUD that inserted into the bladder led to the formation of bladder stone. The clinical course and the endoscopic management of the stone and the IUD is reviewed in this case report...

Fluctuations in sex steroid levels during the menstrual cycle and the use of hormonal contraceptives have been linked to changes in cognitive function and emotions in females. Such variations may be mediated by overall brain activity and excitability. We aimed to investigate the impact of female hormonal status on resting state EEG (rsEEG) parameters, including periodic (individual alpha frequency, alpha power) and aperiodic (1/f slope) features. rsEEG was recorded in healthy females (mean age 26.4 ± 4...

The intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) is the most frequently used method of reversible contraception with high efficacy. Despite these benefits, rare complications, such as spontaneous migration of the device into adjacent organs, particularly the bladder, are possible. Minimally invasive surgery is a safe and effective procedure with few complications for the management of migrated IUCDs. We presented a 36-year-old multiparous woman referred by her gynecologist who had an IUCD inserted 4 years prior...
