AKT-4001

You encounter a 24-year-old nulliparous woman who wishes to discuss contraception. She has tried various pills over the past few years but has not found one that suits her.

During your discussion of the available options, she expresses a preference for an intrauterine system (IUS) over a copper intrauterine device (IUD) due to concerns about heavier or more painful periods. You provide information on the Mirena®, Jaydess®, and newer Kyleena® IUS options, but she is uncertain which one to choose.

What advice should you offer her?
