Abstract
After nearly two decades of use, the IUD remains "a generally safe, effective and useful form of birth control" (337). With fewer than six pregnancies per 100 women-years of use and fewer than ten deaths per one million women-years of use, according to a comprehensive new review by the United States Food and Drug Administration, the IUD has an important place in modern family planning programs.
经过近二十年的使用,宫内节育器仍然是“一种普遍安全、有效和有用的节育形式”(337)。根据美国食品和药物管理局(United States Food and Drug Administration,简称fda)最新发布的一份综合评估报告,宫内节育器在现代计划生育项目中占有重要地位,每100名女性中怀孕不到6次,每100万名女性中死亡不到10人。
