Multiple Adverse Outcomes of Intrauterine Devices in One Patient: A Case Report.

Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are commonly used, effective forms of long-acting removable contraceptives that may be inserted by primary care providers. Adverse outcomes with copper IUDs specifically have been extensively documented; however, there is little guidance on whether to offer an IUD to a patient who has already experienced adverse outcomes related to IUDs.
