Percentage of FPs recommending IUDs as a contraceptive option in various situations: In all situations, IUDs were recommended by guidelines, except copper IUDs were not recommended for bleeding dysfunction (menorrhagia or dysmenorrhea), and the LNG-IUS was not recommended for postcoital use. Use of IUDs immediately after delivery was not contraindicated, but there is a higher rate of expulsion than at 4 weeks after delivery, and the decision to recommend IUDs for postcoital use should take other factors into account.
