Deseret Pharmaceutical of Salt Lake City, Utah, copied the gynekoil IUD, with slight variation in stem placement, but the company was sued by Ortho Pharmaceutical, who owned the rights to the Gynekoil. The design of this Saf-T-Coil Model 44 has a coil of approximately 35mm in diameter that flows into a stem. The stem on the present model has been cut off after the second bulb.
