Study of a new hormone-releasing IUD for birth control
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of intrauterine device (IUD) called LevoCept that releases a hormone to prevent pregnancy. The goal is to see how well it works, how safe it is, and whether it is comfortable for you.

- You must be a woman between 18 and 45 years old (or under 18 with parental consent) and have regular menstrual cycles.
- You must be sexually active with a male partner and willing to use the IUD as your only birth control method.
