Levonorgestrel-releasing Intrauterine device is advised in fibroid management if uterine size is less than: (A) 12 weeks, (B) 14 weeks, (C) 16 weeks, (D) 20 weeks
Answer is A. The levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) may be reasonable treatment for selected women with fibroid-associated menorrhagia.In women with fibroids, uterine size no larger than 12 weeks, and a normal uterine cavity, LNG-IUS substantially reduces menstrual bleeding.Reference: Novak's Gynaecology; 14th edition; Chapter 15; Uterine fibroids
