The investigators are studying the effect of placing the etonogestrel implant (Nexplanon) in the first 24 hours after birth on breastfeeding. Women who wish to have an etonogestrel implant placed after their birth, wish to breastfeed, and are willing to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to either get the implant placed in the first 24 hours after delivery of the baby and placenta or 4-6 weeks later. The investigators do not believe there will be a difference in breastfeeding 8 weeks after delivery or time to lactogenesis between those who get the implant placed early or later.
Kenya has made tremendous strides in improving contraceptive prevalence rate for the last 20 years, however the rate of contraceptive discontinuation as remained almost constant at 1 out of 3 women using a family planning method. Contraceptive discontinuation increases unmet need of family planning. Hence understanding the underlying reasons for discontinuation helps in designing programs that improve method satisfaction. The primary goal of the study is to understand the factors leading to contraceptive discontinuation and switching among women of reproductive age (15 - 49 years) in Migori and Kitui counties, Kenya. The secondary goal is to assess whether a client-centered intervention focusing on contraceptive counseling can reduce modern contraceptive discontinuation and increase client satisfaction with use of modern contraceptive methods among women of reproductive age in the two counties. The specific objectives are to: 1. To assess the quality of family planning services offered in health facilities in Migori and Kitui counties, Kenya 2. To explore describe barriers and facilitators of modern contraceptive discontinuation and method switch among women of reproductive age in Migori and Kitui counties. 3. To assess the client-centered intervention focusing on contraceptive counseling in reducing contraceptive discontinuation among women of reproductive age in Migori and Kitui counties, Kenya
The hypothesis of this study is to determine if distribution of a standardized educational handout on contraceptive options given to patients in the prenatal office setting will increase contraception use six months postpartum.
Since 2002, in CHU Amiens, Essure implants started to be used for women in need of voluntary sterilization in accordance with French national recommendations. Recently patient committees emerged to alert health agency and governments about various symptoms possibly link to the Essure implants. New studies have been launched in order to determinate if Essure implants were involved with the symptoms described. According to the scientific literature no solid link between Essure and the symptomatology was highlighted. French National College of Gynecologists and Obstetricians send a letter of information for patient and gynecologists. French National agency of medicament suspended Essure authorization in august 2017 for 3 months. Bayer industry decided to withdraw from the market the Essure implants in autumn 2017. Currently Essure procedures have been stopped to be used in CHU Amiens since august 2017. But, in CHU Amiens, health institutions still have to manage patients with Essure implants and potential adverse effects. The purpose of this study is to determine if the patients treated between 2002 and 2017 with Essure implant present complications, had a proper follow up after the Essure implantation, and that the Essure implantation respected the medical guidelines in order to offer the best medical care with these new informations. Medical data from patients who received Essure procedure will be collected with medical file and a survey about adverse effects will be submitted to patients by phone if they agree to take part of the study after loyal information.
This prospective cohort evaluates the longitudinal profile of hemostatic biomarkers during the first 3 months after having stopped a combined oral contraceptive.
The main objective of this trial is to demonstrate the contraceptive efficacy of LPRI424, Additional goals of the trial are to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of LPRI424.
The primary aim of this study is to determine whether implementation of a postpartum patient navigation program improves health outcomes among low-income women. Patient navigation is a barrier focused, long-term patient-centered intervention that offers support for a defined set of health services. The intervention under investigation is a comprehensive postpartum patient navigator program. Women who are randomized to receive patient navigation will be compared to women who are randomized to receive usual care. Navigators will support women through one year postpartum. The NNM2 program will be grounded in understanding and addressing social determinants of health in order to promote self-efficacy, enhance access, and sustain long-term engagement. Participants will undergo surveys, interviews, and medical record review at 4-12 weeks and 11-13 months postpartum. The investigators will additionally conduct focus groups and surveys with clinical providers.
Postpartum family planning is defined as prevention of unintended pregnancy and closely spaced pregnancies during the first 12 months after the child birth postpartum contraceptive utilization is important because some women resume ovulation after 28 days postpartum inter-pregnancy intervals shorter than 18 to 24 months have been associated with an increased risk of fetal and maternal deaths ,35% of children younger than five deaths could be avoided if births spaced 36 months
Family Planning Elevated (FPE) is a statewide contraceptive initiative with two primary aims: 1) supporting existing and proposed legislative policy that expands family planning services in Utah among low-income individuals covered by contraceptive legislation (currently individuals at ≤100% federal poverty) and 2) demonstrating additional existing service need among low-income individuals who currently fall in the contraceptive coverage gap (101%-250% federal poverty). Family Planning Elevated provides contraceptive grants, education and training, and technical assistance on comprehensive contraceptive care to participating clinics. The purpose of this evaluation is to assess the effect of FPE on clinic-level family planning service delivery among low-income women who fall in the contraceptive coverage gap compared to those receiving services from matched control clinics which did not receive the intervention. To assess these effects, FPE will collect monthly family planning service delivery data from both intervention and control clinics, beginning 12 months prior to the FPE intervention, and following for 12 months after the FPE intervention ends. A difference-in-difference analysis will compare trends and level-changes in family planning services provided to intervention and control groups.
