Introduction

Adolescent females with developmental delays (DDs) experience unique physical and emotional challenges related to menstruation. Providers often recommend hormonal medication for menstrual management. The objective of our study was to describe the utilization and safety of the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) in adolescents with DDs.

Methods

We utilized the Pediatric Health Information System to identify females aged 10-25 with DDs who underwent an LNG-IUS insertion between 2011 and 2020. Using a gynecologic procedure and diagnosis codes, we assessed indications for and complications of LNG-IUS use. We also evaluated early LNG-IUS removal.

Results

One thousand five hundred and sixty female patients with DDs underwent LNG-IUS insertion. LNG-IUS insertion under anesthesia was most commonly performed in patients with autism and Down syndrome, and unspecified menstrual issues were documented for 40% of the cohort. Perforation was observed in 11 patients (1%), and mechanical complications (malpositioned IUS or lost threads) were observed in 23 patients (1%).

Discussion

This is the largest analysis of LNG-IUS use in patients with DDs to our knowledge and shows the utilization of LNG-IUS in patients with DDs. We provide descriptive information that providers can use to accurately advise their patients with DDs on the risks and benefits of LNG-IUS use for menstrual management.

左炔诺孕酮宫内缓释系统在发育迟缓患者中的应用

介绍

发育迟缓 (DD) 的青春期女性会经历与月经相关的独特的身体和情感挑战。提供者通常会推荐激素药物来控制月经。我们研究的目的是描述左炔诺孕酮宫内缓释系统 (LNG-IUS) 在 DD 青少年中的使用情况和安全性。

方法

我们利用儿科健康信息系统来识别 2011 年至 2020 年间接受 LNG-IUS 置入的 10-25 岁 DD 女性。我们使用妇科手术和诊断代码评估了使用 LNG-IUS 的适应症和并发症。我们还评估了早期 LNG-IUS 的移除。

结果

1560 名患有 DD 的女性患者接受了 LNG-IUS 置入术。自闭症和唐氏综合症患者最常在麻醉下置入 LNG-IUS,并且记录了 40% 的队列中未指明的月经问题。在 11 名患者 (1%) 中观察到穿孔,在 23 名患者 (1%) 中观察到机械并发症(IUS 位置不当或漏线)。

讨论

据我们所知,这是对 LNG-IUS 在 DD 患者中使用的最大分析,并显示了 LNG-IUS 在 DD 患者中的应用。我们提供了描述性信息,提供者可以使用这些信息来准确地建议他们的 DD 患者使用 LNG-IUS 进行月经管理的风险和益处。
