Insertion of Copper T380 Versus Multiload IUD Post Partum

Overview

To compare efficacy safety \& side effects of multiload 375 IUD versus copper T 380 IUD when inserted during elective CS

Insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD) immediately after delivery is appealing for several reasons. The woman is known not to be pregnant, her motivation for contraception may be high, and the setting may be convenient for both the woman and her provider The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that a woman should wait at least 24 months after delivery before the next pregnancy to decrease the adverse maternal, perinatal ,and infant outcomes. Compared with other contraceptive methods, early post-partum IUD insertion has several advantages. It provides immediate contraception without interfering with breast feeding, and it may avoid discomfort related to insertion. Inserting an IUD immediately after placental removal has not been associated with increased infection, uterine perforation, postpartum bleeding, or uterine subinvolution . The expulsion rate is higher (approximately 12% in the first postpartum year) after immediate postpartum insertion compared to insertion 4 to 8 weeks later. Continuation rates are relatively high (87.6% and 76.3%, at 6 and 12 months, respectively Studies have shown that with effective provider training, the immediate postpartum IUD insertion (IPPIUD) complications such as expulsion, pelvic infection, bleeding, pain, missing threads ,and failure rates are not significantly different from those of interval PPIUD insertion (4:6 weeks) after delivery
