Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryIUD Expulsion Rate3 months postpartum
The primary outcome of the study is the total number of expulsions in the full 3 month study period. The provider will perform a speculum exam and transvaginal ultrasound. If expulsion has occurred, the participant will have an abdominal x-ray to confirm.
SecondaryPregnancy6 weeksA urine pregnancy test will be performed at the 6 week follow up visit if clinically indicated.
SecondaryPregnancy3 monthsA urine pregnancy test will be performed at the 3 month follow up visit if clinically indicated.

SecondarySatisfaction3 monthsA questionnaire will be administered to determine the participant's satisfaction level with the IUD. Satisfaction levels of \>= 8 are reported by percent of participants.
SecondaryIntrauterine Device Expulsion (Day 1)Day 1Number of expulsions at Day 1. Position of the IUD within the uterus will be documented by ultrasound.
SecondaryIntrauterine Device Expulsion (6 Weeks)6 weeksNumber of expulsions. Position of the IUD within the uterus will be documented by ultrasound.
SecondaryIntrauterine Device Expulsion by 12 Weeks Postpartum12 weeksPosition of the IUD within the uterus will be documented by ultrasound.
