RESUMEN

PIP: 433 patients were selected by social workers for postpartum insertion of Lippes Loop. Of these only 261, or 60.27%, were available for followup 10 months after insertion. At that time, 177 patients, or 67.81%, were still wearing the IUD and were satisfied with it. 19, or 7.2%, expelled it, and 40, or 15.32% had it removed for different reasons, such as bleeding or pain. 11 patients asked for definitive contraception, and 14, or 5.36%, became pregnant with the device in situ, a percentage certainly higher than that of 1.9% reported by other authors.^ieng
