Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find in the group receiving the medication studied, compared to placebo, a reduction in the average pain at the time of insertion of the Intrauterine Device (IUD) TCu380A and Intrauterine System (IUD) LNG 52 mg, the average overall pain related to the procedure and the average pain reported 10 minutes after the end of the procedure, with pain levels being obtained using an 11-point numerical scale (0 = no pain and 10 = severe pain)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected that in the group receiving the medication studied, compared to placebo, there will be a reduction in average pain during the insertion of the TCu380A Intrauterine Device (IUD) and the LNG 52 mg Intrauterine System (IUD) in the cervical clamping and hysterometry stages, with pain levels being obtained using an 11-point numerical scale (0 = no pain and 10 = severe pain);It is expected that in the group receiving the medication studied, compared to placebo, there will be a reduction in women's average perception of pain during the insertion procedure of the TCu380A Intrauterine Device (IUD) and LNG 52 mg Intrauterine System (IUD), assessed using a 4-point verbal descriptor scale, where 0 = no pain, 1 = mild pain, 2 = moderate pain and 3 = severe pain;It is expected that the group receiving the medication studied will find it easier to insert the TCu380A Intrauterine Device (IUD) and LNG 52 mg Intrauterine System (IUD) by the doctor responsible for the procedure, compared to placebo, classified as: easy, moderate or difficult
