The aim of this study was to determine the effects of a copper-releasing intrauterine device (IUD) on myometrial contractility midway through the menstrual cycle.
Uterine peristalsis was studied midway through the cycle with transvaginal sonography in two groups of women, a control group and women in whom a copper-releasing IUD had been inserted.
The results showed that 12 months after insertion, no uterine motility could be detected with sonography in any of the women with an IUD, but motility did occur in all the controls.
Subendometrial-myometrial contractility midway through the menstrual cycle had been abolished in patients with a copper-releasing IUD. The loss of motility may inhibit sperm transport from the cervix to the oviduct and account for at least part of the contraceptive effect of these devices.
本研究的目的是确定含铜宫内节育器(IUD)在月经周期中期对子宫肌层收缩性的影响。
通过经阴道超声对两组女性在月经周期中期的子宫蠕动情况进行研究,一组为对照组,另一组为已插入含铜IUD的女性。
结果显示,插入IUD 12个月后,超声检查未在任何带IUD的女性中检测到子宫蠕动,但所有对照组女性均有子宫蠕动。
含铜IUD患者在月经周期中期子宫内膜下-子宫肌层的收缩性已被消除。蠕动的丧失可能会抑制精子从宫颈向输卵管的运输,这至少是这些节育器避孕效果的部分原因。
