IUD expulsion risk by IUD frame type

Discussion, the authors comment that their 12-month IUD expulsion rates of 2.9% (95% CI 2.4-3.5%) and 2.4% (95% CI 2.1-2.7%) for Tatum-T and Nova-T frames, respectively, are lower than previously reported. The authors reference a 2007 Cochrane review [2], the 2005 package insert for ParaGard [3], and a 2022 report with 927 nulliparous participants [4].
