Brief Summary
The intrauterine device (IUD) is one of the most widely used reversible, long-term contraceptive methods in the world. But despite all its advantages; discontinuation rate of IUD ranged from 9.6% to 37.3 % (according to Demographic and Health Surveys data). In Egypt, in 2014, the discontinuation rate of IUD (within 12 months of use) was 14.3%.This study explores the differences around this rate in Egyptian university clinic and primary healthcare clinic with detailed percentages of possible causes.
