Study Summary

The purpose of this study is: 1. To evaluate whether 550 mg of naproxen sodium reduces pain scores with IUD insertion on a 0-10cm visual analogue scale compared to placebo (primary outcome). 2. To evaluate whether 550 mg of naproxen sodium reduces pain scores with tenaculum placement, uterine sounding and post-procedurally on a 0-10 cm visual analog scale compared to placebo (secondary outcomes). 3. To establish if prophylactic naproxen sodium is acceptable for routine use prior to IUD insertion. Hypothesis: The administration of naproxen sodium, 550mg orally, 1 hour prior to IUD insertion will lead to a reduction in pain scores associated with IUD insertion compared to placebo.

Primary Outcome

Pain at time of IUD insertion will be measured immediately upon completion of IUD insertion using a 100 mm visual analog scale (VAS). Patients are presented with a 100 mm line. On one end of the line, the anchor is "0 = No pain". On the opposite end of the line, the anchor is "10 = worst pain possible". Subjects are asked: "Where 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst pain possible, please record your pain on the scale below." Research staff measure the distance between the "0 = No pain" anchor and th
