What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
pain during IUD insertion
Time Frame: 5 minutes
intensity of patient-perceived pain at time of IUD insertion, using a visual analog scale. The VAS scale is graded from 0 to 100 on a 100 mm horizontal straight line, where 'zero' corresponds to no pain at all, and '100' to the worst possible pain imaginable.
5 minutes

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
duration of IUD insertion
Time Frame: 5 minutes
duration of IUD insertion from speculum in to speculum out
5 minutes
