    Summary

    Inserting an intrauterine device (IUD) during cesarean birth significantly reduces expulsion rates and improves continuation rates for postpartum family planning. This safe procedure offers a viable option for women.

    Area of Science:

    • Reproductive Health
    • Obstetrics & Gynecology
    • Family Planning

    Background:

    • Immediate postpartum intrauterine device (IUD) insertion is a key strategy for postpartum family planning.
    • High expulsion rates have historically limited the effectiveness of immediate postpartum vaginal IUD insertions.
    • Cesarean delivery offers a potential window for IUD insertion with potentially lower expulsion risks.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review and synthesize the findings from studies on intrauterine device (IUD) insertion during cesarean section.
    • To evaluate the safety and effectiveness, specifically expulsion and continuation rates, of this insertion method.

    Main Methods:

    • Systematic review and synthesis of nine studies conducted in Chinese maternity hospitals.
    • Focus on studies reporting on immediate post-cesarean IUD insertions.

  • Inclusion of translated reports (seven originally in Chinese) for a wider audience.

    • Main Results:

    • All nine reviewed studies reported low intrauterine device (IUD) expulsion rates following insertion at the time of cesarean section.
    • Continuation rates were high and comparable to those observed with interval IUD insertions.
    • The procedure was found to be safe, with no significant adverse events reported.

    Conclusions:

    • Immediate post-cesarean intrauterine device (IUD) insertion is a safe and effective method for postpartum family planning.
    • This approach overcomes the high expulsion rates associated with immediate postpartum vaginal insertions.
    • Findings support the integration of this procedure into postpartum family planning services and warrant further research into postpartum IUD expulsion mechanisms.
