Pattern of intrauterine device discontinuation and its determinants in a tertiary hospital in south-west Nigeria
Background: Intrauterine Contraceptive Device is a very reliable long-acting reversible contraceptive that can be used for many years. With Nigeria's relatively low contraceptive prevalence rate, the most populous country in Africa, it is important to explore factors associated with discontinuing intrauterine devices in its users. Objective: This study determined factors associated with discontinuation of intrauterine contraceptives in reproductive aged women.
