Summary

It has been shown that the immediate insertion of intrauterine devices (IUDs) post-abortion prevents repeat abortions. The researchers hypothesize that providing free IUDs post-abortion will be associated with a lower rate of repeat abortion in a Canadian population. Further, the researchers hypothesize that providing free IUDs post-abortion will be associated with decreased costs for the health care system.
