Medical device and method for preventing adhesions

A method of treating a uterine cavity following a medical procedure therein, the method comprising:

• deploying a device within the uterine cavity in a delivery profile, the device having a contact surface carrying a first pharmacological agent;
• expanding the device to cause the contact surface to move into an expanded profile where the contact surface engages a surface of the uterine cavity to tamponade a bleeding at the surface of the uterine cavity and such that the first pharmacological agent releases from the contact surface into the surface of the uterine cavity over a first time interval;
• collapsing the device to a collapsed profile to provide a barrier between uterine cavity surfaces wherein a second pharmacological agent releases from the contact surface over a second time interval, wherein the device is partially flattened while within the uterine cavity in the collapsed profile;
• and
• removing the device in a removal profile after the second time interval.
