Details and patient eligibility
About
Investigators previously developed a guide to help people with IUD self-removal. In this randomized study, the goal is to see if this guide makes it easier for IUD-users to remove their own IUDs.
The main question the study aims to answer is:
-Does use of the previously developed IUD self-removal guide increase rates of self removal?
Participants will:
- Complete a pre-study survey
- Be randomized to self-removal with use of the guide or no additional resource
- Self-select participation at home or in clinic
- Attempt IUD self-removal either at home or in clinic
- Complete a post-study survey.
Investigators will compare rates of successful self-removal between those randomized to the guide to those randomized to no additional resource to see if increases success.
