This trial tests whether adding a buffer to lidocaine reduces pain during IUD insertion for women who have never given birth. It may help make the procedure more comfortable.
This study tests whether a numbing injection (lidocaine) in the cervix can reduce pain during IUD placement. It's for women who have never had a vaginal birth and are getting their first IUD.
This study tests whether a small device called a TENS unit can reduce pain during IUD insertion. The TENS unit sends gentle electrical pulses through pads on your skin to help block pain signals, and you'll be part of a group that uses it during the procedure.
This study tests whether a numbing gel (lidocaine) works better than a placebo gel (fake gel) to reduce pain during IUD insertion. If you are getting an IUD for the first time and have never given birth, you may be able to join.
This study tests if a pain-relief medicine, ketorolac, helps reduce pain when getting an IUD placed. It might be an option if you are planning to have an IUD inserted.
This trial tests whether a lower dose of the pain medicine ketorolac can safely control pain for people in the intensive care unit (ICU). If you are in the ICU and have pain, this study might help find a better way to treat it.
