OBJECTIVES AND OUTLINE
1. Copper IUD is most effective
2. Ulipristal acetate (Ella) most effective oral
3. Weight matters for oral methods
4. Prioritize EC efficacy, ongoing contraception, or both
5. Additional benefits with IUDs

WHAT IS EC?
• Prevents pregnancy after intercourse• EC doesn't interrupt an existing pregnancy• Must be initiated in a specific time frame
– Copper IUD within 5-7 d of UPI– Ulipristal acetate 30 mg (UPA, Ella) within 5 d– Levonorgestrel 1.5 mg (LNG, Plan B) within 3 d– Mifepristone

HOW DOES IT WORK?
• Disrupts ovulation– LNG blocks LH surge– UPA blocks ovulation prior to the LH peak
? Disrupts fertilization +? But not pregnancy-Copper IUD

WHEN TO USE IT
• When giving a new contraception RX• After unprotected intercourse• New contraceptive start• After sexual assault

HOW WELL DOES IT WORK? EC EFFICACY
EC Method Cycle pregnancy risk
Copper IUD 0.1%
UPA 1.2-1.8%
LNG 1.5-2.6%

THE COPPER IUD FOR EC WORKS EXCEPTIONALLY FOR ALL WOMEN
• Elevated BMI = 0-0.1%• Intercourse in the fertile window = 0-0.1%• Further intercourse in the cycle = 0-0.1%
ONGOING CONTRACEPTION

Cu IUD Easy, ready to goOral LNG Start, Abstain or

Brache et al. Hum Reprod 2015; 30:2785.
• 3 arm RCT of 71 people • Primary outcome: ovulation < 6 days UPA & desogestrel – 13/29 (45%) UPA & placebo – 1/29 (3%) Placebo & desogestrel 11/29 (38%)

Desires IUD?
Insert IUD Assess risk of pregnancy
High risk:Multiple &/or mid-cycle UPI
Low risk:UPI outside fertile window, contraception failureOffer UPA*
Use back up. Delay hormonal contraception for 5 days

STUFF WE’VE LEARNED ABOUT IUDS AND EC
Fewer pregnancies with CuT380 than oral LNG x 1 year
CuT380 IUD anytime with a negative pregnancy test
AND what about the LNG IUD for EC???????
COPPER IUD EC CLINICAL TRIAL
• Participants select oral LNG or the copper IUD
• Primary outcome: difference between unplanned pregnancy between the 2 groups at 1 year
• Secondary outcomes:– IUD expulsion/removal rates– Use of an effective method of contraception

The copper IUD can be placed for EC:
IF… within 5 days of UPI
BUT…if the day of ovulation can be estimated
THEN…it can be inserted after 5 days after UPI
IF…it’s not more than 5 days after ovulation
COULD THIS BE SIMPLER?
METHODS: ORIGINAL INCLUSION CRITERIA
• Secondary analysis of a prospective trial of copper T380 IUD EC users in China (n=1,963)
• Age 18-44• Regular cycles between 24-42 days• Known last menstrual period (LMP)• Within 5 days (120 hours) of UPI• All participants had a negative urine
pregnancy test (hcg 25 IU/L)Wu et al. BJOG 2010;117:1205-20.
RESULTS
• No pregnancies
• 1840 participants (93.7%) had usual cycle lengths of 25-35 days
• 850 (46.2%) UPI in the fertile window
• 84 (4.6%) had IUD insertion > 5 days after ovulation
• 52 (2.7%) had insertion > 5 days after UPI

NEXT UP: RAPID EC
• RCT Assessing Pregnancy with IuDs (RAPID) for EC
• Women interested in an IUD for EC
• Randomly assigned to copper or LNG IUD
• Primary outcome: non-inferiority pregnancy at 4 weeks
• Secondary outcome: IUD continuation continuation
• Recruitment goal = 706

CONCLUSION
1. Copper IUD is most effective
2. Ulipristal acetate (Ella) most effective oral
3. Weight matters for oral methods
4. Prioritize EC efficacy, ongoing contraception, or both – Beware UPA
5. Additional benefits with IUDs
