INTRODUCTION: According to the 2021 census, India has 140.76 crore people, making it the most populous country in the world. It adds over 25 million births annually, making up 17.76% of the world's population. Family planning is most effective during the postpartum period. Research indicates that giving birth fewer than two years apart can increase maternal mortality and obstetric problems. Therefore, using contraception is required. This study aids in identifying the demographic and socioeconomic variables related to post-placental and post-cesarean Copper-T implantation. Determining the elements linked to PPIUCD acceptability and non-acceptability is also beneficial. METHODOLOGY : In order to determine eligibility, their labor event data were examined, and the woman was questioned regarding her acceptance or rejection of PPIUCD (Cu-T). In the postpartum and postoperative wards, women who qualified for PPIUCD were located and contacted. The parturient provided written informed consent to participate in the study. The researcher filled out questionnaires. The following variables were gathered through the use of a structured questionnaire: the women's social demographics, obstetric and gynecological characteristics, prior contraceptive methods, information source and awareness of the PPIUCD, reasons for accepting or declining PPIUD insertion, and their desires for future pregnancies. RESULTS: Male condoms were the most widely utilized form of birth control among parturients (17.12%). Among the least popular techniques was interval IUCD (2.7%). Acceptance of PPIUCD was statistically substantially correlated with both previous interval IUCD users and parturients who had never used contraception (p ˂ 0.05). A small percentage of women (5.86%) report extremely painful PPIUCD insertions, whereas around half (50.90%) report no discomfort at all. Over half (51.35%) of the women who accepted PPIUCD did so because of its long-term effects. CONCLUSION: According to the study, the PPIUCD is especially safe and has low side effects. Even at the prenatal clinic, patients should be informed of the benefits of family planning, which can prevent 20–35% of maternal deaths and over 20% of newborn deaths. |
