The psychological well-being of women of Menoufiya, Egypt
Researchers surveyed the psychological well-being of 795 women of reproductive age from Menoufiya, Egypt. Five years earlier, these women had provided data relevant to their family planning behavior.

Well-being measures are derived for trait and state dimensions.…

Using cross-sectional survey data from 4,908 Egyptian women, hie…
Clinical Outcomes of Two Early Postpartum IUD Insertion Programs in Africa
Postpartum IUD insertion programs are new to Africa and few have been carefully evaluated. Also, data on the clinical outcomes of postpartum IUD insertions using the Copper T 380A IUD are sparse. Therefore, we conducted a study to evaluate introductory postpartum IUD programs using the Copper T 380A IUD in Kenya and Mali. Postpartum IUD acceptors in Kenya (n=224) and Mali (n=110) were interviewed at baseline and at 1, 3, and 6 months after delive…

Life-table methods were applied to compare breastfeeding and non-breastfeeding women with respect to IUD expulsion, accidental pregnancy, IUD removal for various reasons, and overall continuation of IUD use. Results indicate that breastfeeding does not increase the risk of expulsion or other ev…
