Abstract
The easily performed technique of Cu-T380A PPIUD insertion with the inserter may make immediate PPIUD insertions more convenient for patients and providers. The technique, involving less IUD manipulation and reduced dependence on extra instruments, could combine to make PPIUD a more popular option. Since this study has a short follow-up period, further study is needed to better understand comparative outcomes with longer follow-up. Additional research on string management for IUDs inserted with the inserter could help explain the increased number of partial expulsions.
