This study was conducted to evaluate the clinical performance of the Nova-T IUD. The insertion period was from November 1981 to November 1982. Two-hundred-and-one (201) consecutive IUDs were inserted in women attending a family planning clinic and they were followed for a period of 5 years. Most events occurred in the first 2 years of the study and there were no pregnancies in the 3rd, 4th or 5th year. The pregnancy rate after 5 years was 3.2 or a Pearl index of 1.21 which is very good compared to other methods of contraception now available. Our conclusion is that the Nova-T IUD is an excellent method of contraception and it can be left in place for a period of 5 years.

PIP: This study was conducted to evaluate the clinical performance of the Nova-IUD. The insertion period was from November 1981 to November 1982. 201 consecutive IUD's were inserted in women attending a family planning clinic at a university hospital in Canada and they were followed for a period of 5 years. Most events occurred in the first 2 years of the study and there were no pregnancies in the 3rd, 4th or 5th year. The pregnancy rate after 5 years was 3.2 or a Pearl index of 1.21 which is very good compared to other methods of contraception now available. Our conclusion is that the Nova-T IUD is an excellent method of contraception and it can be left in place for a period of 5 years.
