ABSTRACT:
An intrauterine contraceptive device comprising an elongated shank having divergent convoluted portions at its distal end, said convoluted portions being generally sinusoidal in nature, said device having incorporated in said shank a permanent magnet and having a substantial portion of its surface covered with a biologically inert, silicone elastomeric material which may contain an analgaesic or anti-fertility agent which is gradually eleased in utero. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the proximal end, of the shank contains a pair of downwardly extending divergent, resilient legs which tend to prevent inadvertent expulsion of the device. In another preferred embodiment, the lower end of the device is also formed with one or more small refillable containers for certain types of medication which are released gradually into the vagina and the lower end of the uterus over a prolonged period of time for the prevention and cure of such venereal diseases as gonorrhea, syphilis, trichomonas vaginalis and moniliasis.
