Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to evaluate intracervical lidocaine gel as a means to decrease pain associated with intrauterine device (IUD) insertion. They will be randomized to either placebo (inert water based lubricating gel) or 2% lidocaine gel to be placed intracervically via angio-catheter just before intrauterine device insertion. Anticipated pain scores will be assessed using a visual analog scale prior to insertion. Using the same pain scale, patients will again be asked at the end of the procedure to rate their pain.
Detailed Description:
Double blind randomized controlled trial.
Primary outcome: Pain reported on Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Intervention: 2% lidocaine gel at the tenaculum site and intracervical prior to intrauterine device placement
