MonaLisa 5
Slide blue flange to the length of the uterus as measured by the uterine sound
Use the string to pull the IUD into the insertion tube
Insert the plunger into the tube
Insert IUD into the uterus until the blue flange is 2 cm from the cervix
Release the IUD arms by keeping the tube steady and advancing the plunger by 2 cm
Notice the ridge on the plunger at the 2 cm mark
Release IUD by withdrawing the tube, holding the plunger steady
To avoid pulling the IUD out of position, withdraw the plunger before withdrawing the tube
Cut the string about 2 cm long
For easier insertion in a curved uterus, the IUD can be curved before insertion
