For patients in the experimental group, using the virtual reality helmet, the caregiver will position the helmet on the patient when she is placed on the gynecological examination table. He or she will make sure that the patient can see and hear the current sequence. The caregiver can then proceed with the different steps of the IUD insertion. Once the procedure is completed, the caregiver will indicate to the patient that she can remove the headphones.

For patients in the control group, without a helmet, the course of the consultation will not be modified.
