Objectives
To study the efficacy safety effect on menstrual cycles, expulsion, continuation, and failure rate of post placental Copper-T-380A after vaginal and cesarean birth in a tertiary center, over the period of 1 year.
Methods
A total of 150 women who opted for insertion of Copper-T-380A within 10 min of expulsion of placenta whether delivered vaginally or by cesarean section were enrolled into study. Women having past history of ectopic pregnancy or any genital tract infection or hemorrhagic disorders, uterine anomaly, chorioamnionitis, LPV > 18 h, unresolved PPH, Hb < 8 g% were excluded from the study.
Results
No incidence of perforation, PID, and failure of contraception was detected. Percentage satisfaction among users after 6 weeks—91.7 %, 3 months—92.9 %, and 6 months—95.6 %.
Conclusion
Although there was high incidence of missing IUCD threads (probably owing to coiling of long threads), the actual expulsion rate was far lesser. Removal rate due to menorrhagia, pain in abdomen, and vaginal discharge was low, and 6 months continuation rate was considerably good.
