In developing countries, delivery may be the only time when a woman comes into contact with health care provider. Family planning program conductors should use the opportunity of the antepartum period for counselling and immediate postpartum period for IUCD insertion for those who are willing. Cases of women undergoing Cu T insertion post placental either after vaginal delivery or intra-caesarean at hospital were taken. Follow up at 6 weeks was done on outpatient basis. Cu-T 380 A and Cu-T 375 was used in this study for all women, which was supplied free of cost by the Govt. of India.Out of 100 sample patients; 72(72.0%) of patients gestational age was 38+ to 40 weeks. Since the labour incidence is more during 38+ to 40 weeks, the incidence of acceptance in that group was high i.e., 72%. The rate of acceptance beyond 40 weeks was 15% since there is a higher incidence of meconium stained amniotic fluid in postdated pregnancies.Out of 100 patients 73; (73.0%) of patients mode of delivery was caesarean section and 27 (27.0%) of patients mode of delivery was vaginal delivery. |
