ABSTRACT:
A flexible transparent package for transporting and storing an IUD. The package (2) includes a specifically configured seal line such that the IUD (12) may be manipulated into the configured portion (14) of the package and by utilizing the IUD insertion device (10) and the finger and thumb of the operator from the exterior of the package to place the IUD within the insertion device. Whether the IUD is packaged alone or jointly with the insertion device and the necessary plunger (16), the IUD must be shipped and stored in the expanded condition and the present invention permits the compaction and insertion without significantly affecting the sterile conditions of that portion of the device which must be inserted into the body cavity.
