Abstract
Objectives: To assess perimenopausal users of 52 mg levonorgestrel intrauterine devices (LNG-IUD) regarding the IUD impact after menopause.
Material and methods: a cross-sectional study with users aged 40 and 49 years old, without cognitive impairment that answered a questionnaire regarding worries and benefits after the menopause due to LNG-IUD use.
Results: Almost half of 221 users (52.9%) have concerns that LNG-IUD use could influence aspects after menopause, 111 (50.3%) that the post-menopause symptoms get worse and 92 (41.6%) that interfere with recognition of menopausal symptoms.
Conclusion: Half of perimenopausal LNG-IUD users expressed concerns about how device use could affect post-menopause symptoms.
