Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Pregnancy in Loop-shaped Intrauterine Device Group and Intrauterine Balloon Group

    three years

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Menstruation Pattern(Improvement or No Significant Change) of All Participants

    Within the first 3 months after surgery

  • Endometrial Thickness of All Participants in the Mid Menstrual Measured by Color Doppler Ultrasound

    Within the first 3 months after surgery

  • Number of Participants With Reformation of Intrauterine Adhesions in Loop-shaped Intrauterine Device Group and Intrauterine Balloon Group

    Within the first 3 months after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Group A

EXPERIMENTAL

At the end of the procedure the surgery loop-shaped intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) was placed in the uterine cavity.

Device: loop-shaped intrauterine contraceptive device

Group B

EXPERIMENTAL

At the end of the procedure the surgery an intrauterine balloon (Cook Medical) was placed in the uterine cavity.

Device: intrauterine balloon (Cook Medical)

Interventions

Intrauterine contraceptive device can temporary protective layer between the endometrium wound during the most critical three weeks after the surgery to prevent adhesion reformation.

Group A

The balloons used in this study is heart- shaped that resembled the shape of the uterine cavity and could fully separate the two sides of the uterine wall and the corners of the uterus compare to loop-shaped intrauterine contraceptive device.

Group B
