These studies suggest that the Femilis 60 LNG-IUS releasing 20 µg of LNG/day is an effective, well-tolerated, and well-retained contraceptive both in parous and in nulliparous women. The design of the LNG-IUS, with flexible transverse arm(s) length of 28 mm, allows for a simplification of the insertion technique and training requirements facilitating the use by nonspecialist providers in either developed or developing countries. For nulliparous women, additional evaluation of devices with a 24 mm transverse arm(s), as it relates to tolerability, retention, and continuation of use, still needs to be undertaken.
