Abstract
BACKGROUND Immediate postpartum IUCD insertion is an effective, safe and reversible method of family planning, which provides contraception to women before discharge from the delivery settings. The objective of this study was to evaluate the complications, safety, efficacy and continuation rate of the two routes of insertion (vaginal and caesarean deliveries).

Cu T Multiload 375 was inserted after obtaining written consent. 75 women from each group, i.e. vaginal and caesarean delivery groups were studied and compared for a period of 6 months. RESULTS 57.33% of women from vaginal group and 60% of women from caesarean group had no complaints. Overall, 12% of women had menstrual disturbances. Expulsion rate was higher in vaginal group (9.33%) and rate of missing strings was higher in caesarean group (17.33%) with removal of Cu T in 10.6% and 17.3% in vaginal and caesarean group respectively.
