In vivo distribution of a vaginal gel: MRI evaluation of the effects of gel volume, time and simulated intercourseKurt Thomas Barnhart
Center for Reproductive Medicine and Surgery, University of Pennsylvania Medical Center, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA
Contraception 70:498-505. 2004..Simulated intercourse greatly enhances gel spread. After simulated intercourse, the distribution of the gel at each volume was similar. Less leakage of gel was reported with the smaller volume...
