Abstract

Background: Intrauterine Contraceptive Device (IUD) is a safe, convenient and inexpensive method of contraception involving neither repetition nor interference with sexual activity. Aim of the work: To to examine cytologic and colposcopic changes in individuals utilising IUCDs in the cervical region.for long periods of time and to create awareness among the IUCD users for regular follow up. Patients and methods: The Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Al-Hussein University Hospital conducted this cross-sectional study. 200 monogamous individuals with IUCD who have been free of STIs for three to five years made up the study group (Group 1). On the other hand, and Control Group (Group 2) included 200 patients without a previous anamnesis of any contraception method. Results: Between the subjects in groups (1) and (2), the quantity of aberrant cervical cytology differed in a statistically significant way (p=0.02). When compared to group 1, group 2 was shown to have a higher incidence of inflammatory and infectious disorders, but group 1 had a higher incidence of abnormal ectopic changes (2). Regarding the degree of ectopy, there was a statistically significant difference between group (1) and group (2). (2). The findings of the colposcopy revealed a significant statistical distinction between members of group (1) and group (2). Conclusion: It is crucial to make sure that cervical cancer screening and contraception function closely together in order to give women the best treatment possible.
