POST-PARTUM IUD (PPIUD) - COMING SOON
Quick - what’s an easy way to increase IUD uptake at a service delivery point where women are present and potentially receptive?
One answer is post-partum IUD or “PPIUD”, a technology and approach to delivering IUD following birth when both client and provider are present.
DKT is currently registering a PPIUD device with the FMHACA.
“We are excited to bring the PPIUD to Ethiopia,” says Hawi Tadesse, DKT Ethiopia’s Technical Head.
“The postpartum period is a convenient time to offer FP options to women or couples who desire to space or limit pregnancies.”
“Doing so minimizes costs to clients and to programs.”
