The objective of the study was to see the difference in expulsion rates of two types of Copper containing intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCDs): Cu 375 &amp; CuT 380 A, within or at 6 weeks after insertion. It was a randomised control trial. A total of 396 pregnant women were recruited. Ultrasonography was done to look for the position of the IUCD at the time of discharge and at six weeks follow-up and the expulsion rate was calculated. Amongst 396 participants, 22 PPIUCDs were expelled completely at 6 weeks (modified intention to treat analysis [ITA]), 10 (5.3%) and 12 (6.7%) in the Cu 375 and CuT 380 A groups respectively. The expulsion rate was 6.02%. However, this difference was not statistically significant. When ultrasonologically assessed partial expulsions were also considered, the total expulsion rate in both groups (14.3% and 14.1% respectively) was also not significantly different. The expulsion rate was higher in the vaginal delivery group (10.7%) than in the caesarean section (3.6%) group ( p  = 0.007) and early postpartum insertion 12.3% than in the immediate post-placental insertion group, 3.7% ( p  = 0.002). 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.
