Abstract :

 Background: Study was done to assess the safety, efficacy, complications and acceptance of PPIUCD. Methods: 673 enrolled women were divided into two groups. Cu-T 380 A was inserted in both the groups. Postplacental group included 271 cases and Intracaesarean group 402 cases. There were three follow up visits - at 6 weeks, after 3 months and at 6 months postpartum. Results: The continuation rate was 82.28% in postplacental group and 89.8% in intracaesarean group. Most common complication was expulsion in both the group. Intracaesarean insertion group was having missing thread as second most common complication while bleeding p/v was in postplacental group. Cause of removal was mainly bleeding 9(64.26%) in Intracaesarean group and pain in lower abdomen 8(32%) in  Postplacental group.
