Does change in the shape of intrauterine contraceptive device Cu 375 and Cu T 380A affect the expulsion after post-partum insertion - a prospective randomized control trial.

The study concluded that the altered shape of Cu 375 has effectively no role in decreasing the expulsion rate. Placement of IUCD at or near the uterine fundus immediately after delivering the placenta (post-placental) decreases the expulsion rate, thereby increasing the contraceptive efficacy.SHORT CONDENSATIONThe altered shape of Cu 375 has effectively no role in decreasing the expulsion rate.
