<p>An intrauterine system for the retention of a biologically active compound within the uterus of a female mammal is formed by a frame defining an interior space for receipt of a deposit of the compound. The frame has an open structure allowing access to a substantial part of an outer surface of the deposit and the deposit has a rate controlling structure that controls a rate of release of the compound within the uterus. Retention elements are provided on the frame for retaining the frame within the uterus.</p> |
