Brief Summary:
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG20) in nulliparous and parous females of child-bearing potential who request long-term, reversible contraception for up to 10 years.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Contraception Drug: LNG20 Drug: Mirena Phase 3

Detailed Description:
This is a Phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter evaluation of the efficacy of a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG20). The goals of the study include provision of information to understand efficacy and safety within the widest range of possible users of the LNG20. Typically, intrauterine contraceptive studies only include women 18-35 years of age for efficacy and safety, and place limits on parity and larger body size. Women outside of these characteristics also desire an effective intrauterine contraceptive. Accordingly, this study will include women who are both nulliparous and parous as well as women less than 18 years of age in the primary efficacy and safety analyses
