Dr. Darney:
We had a resurgence in interest in use of intrauterine contraception with new intrauterine contraceptives that are safe and highly effective and have expanded indications. That is, many more women can use intrauterine contraception than was thought possible in the past.
We have also a new implant contraceptive that provides the most effective contraception ever studied. So these new contraceptives are as effective or more effective than sterilization operations and they are completely reversible.
