Abstract

Background: PPIUCD has emerged as the best choice to avoid the missed opportunity of contraceptive practices in a population that is in dire need of family planning as the intrauterine contraceptives have defied apathy, unjustified judgment, negative publicity, and apathy once more to emerge as a safe and effective form of birth control. Preventing conception with an IUCD is one of the oldest techniques of contraception.


 


Objective: To determine the frequency of acceptability, retention and satisfaction of immediate insertion of post-placental intrauterine contraceptive device


 


Material & Methods

Study Design: Descriptive case series


Setting: Unit I, Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Central Park Teaching hospital, Lahore


Duration: 06 months i.e. 26-12-2022 to 26-6-2023


Data collection: 300 females were enrolled after delivery and informed consent was taken for placement of PPIUCD. CuT 380A was placed and acceptability was noted. Then all females were followed up in OPD and after 6 months of insertion, they were called for assessment of PPIUCD presence. If PPIUCD was in its correct position, then retention was labeled.


 


Results: The average age of the females was 29.43±6.55 years, 63(21%) were nulliparous. The acceptability of PPIUCD was noted in 70(23.33%); efficacy in 67(95.7%), and satisfaction was observed in 65 (92.9%)  participants.


 


Conclusion: According to this study acceptability of PPIUD was observed in almost one-fourth of the females. PPIUD is efficacious and proven to have high satisfaction among females.
