This is a retrospective self-controlled observational study. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of a handmade frameless levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (GyneFix-LNG-IUS) in patients at high risk of IUD expulsion. The device was constructed by combining the GyneFix IUD anchor system and a conventional LNG-IUS with the T-shaped arms removed. All data were collected from routine clinical records. The primary outcome was device expulsion or migration during follow-up.
