Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Hainan Provincial People's Hospital Affiliated to Hainan Medical College, Haikou City, China.
Aim: The levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine (LNG-IUS) system is an effective primary treatment for adenomyosis; however, it has high expulsion rates. We aimed to modify the system-allowing affixion to the myometrium-and evaluate the expulsion rate, effectiveness, and side effects in patients with adenomyosis and heavy menstrual bleeding.
Methods: This study included patients with adenomyosis and heavy menstrual bleeding who underwent implantation of: a modified LNG-IUS (experimental group, n = 47); and the original system after gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist treatment (control group, n = 47), between January 2014 and April 2016.
