title: Assessment of uterine shape and size using Kurz's Cavimeter.
abstract: The Kurz's Cavimeter was used to determine uterine shape and dimensions in 509 women prior to IUD insertion. The women were separated into six groups, depending on parity. A slight increase was noted in total uterine length due to endometrial cavity length and transverse fundal diameter in relationship to parity. However, the differences did not reach statistical significance.
