Purpose: The objective was to assess the continuation and satisfaction of women who had copper IUDs inserted during caesarean delivery, in addition to possible factors associated with device positioning.
Materials And Methods: A prospective, observational study was carried out involving 158 women who underwent copper IUD insertion during caesarean delivery in Fortaleza, Brazil. The women were followed up 6 weeks and 6 months after insertion of the IUD, at which time they completed a satisfaction questionnaire. We performed speculum and ultrasound examination.
Results: IUD continuation rates after 6 weeks and 6 months were 92% and 71.5%, respectively. Approximately 85% and 76% of the women were satisfied with the method after 6 weeks and 6 months, respectively. The rate of poor positioning on ultrasound was 5% and the rate of visible thread after 6 weeks was 29.1%, both without association with age, parity, gestational age or active labour. There were 2 cases of infection (1.3%) and no cases of perforation or pregnancy.
Conclusions: There was a good rate of continuation and satisfaction with the immediate post-caesarean IUD. There was no association between IUD malpositioning and age, parity, gestational age or active labour.
