Our Steps to Meet Patient Preferences
Theme 1: Many interviewees preferred immediate postpartum insertion, citing the importance of convenience, a postpartum trial period, peace of mind, and ease of the insertion process.
Offer immediate postpartum LARC universally to eligible patients.
Establish standardized process for peripartum contraceptive counseling using shared decision-making and exploration of patient perceptions of advantages/disadvantages to immediate vs. interval LARC insertion.
Theme 2: Women prefer that immediate postpartum insertion be prospectively addressed during routine prenatal care, but introducing the topic during labor and delivery may be acceptable in many circumstances.
Address contraceptive counseling during prenatal care, over multiple visits if needed.
