Intrauterine Device Placement Success for Adolescents and Young Adults at Community-Based Reproductive Health Clinics.

Background: Despite the endorsement of intrauterine device (IUD) use in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) by leading professional organizations and demonstrated acceptance and desirability by AYAs, clinicians may worry about the procedural difficulty of IUD device placement in younger patients.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of first-attempt IUD placement in an AYA population by vaginal delivery (VD) history.

Study Design: We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients under 25 years old at reproductive health clinics with an IUD placement attempt between January 1 and August 31, 2017.
