Intrauterine devices: learning from the past and looking to the future.

This paper reviews the historical development of the IUD, describing the challenges and successes, and attempts to offer a balanced perspective for family planning service workers today. Modern IUDs are an important component of family planning services and an excellent contraceptive choice for properly screened women, providing contraception that is safe, effective, long lasting and cost effective. Potential research strategies for the future are also discussed.

[Investigations on the contraceptive action of the Graefenberg ring. Historical review (author's transl)].

The biological activity of 2 Graefenberg rings was tested in vitro by electrone microscopy and X-ray microanalysis. The investigation showed that Graefenberg rings made of silver contain a varying amount of copper. The Graefenberg rings showed dissociation of copper in vitro which probably also occurred in the uterine cavity. The effect of the copper on the endometrium was probably a factor in the good contraceptive effectiveness of the Graefenberg silver ring compared for the silk thread intrauterine pessaries.
