Abstract

The development of a safe, effective nonsurgical method of female sterilization that can be performed by paramedical personnel remains a high priority. The method should have a blind delivery system and require only one application. Methyl cyanoacrylate and quinacrine hydrochloride are the two most promising chemical agents. Quinacrine has evolved from instillations of a solution to the development of pellets to the use of an IUD vector. By using an IUD vector to deliver the quinacrine, tubal occlusion can be achieved with a reduction in total dosage and with one insertion instead of the three necessary with the solution and pellet methods.
