Summary

Immigrant women in Europe has reported lower use of effective contraception, higher risks of multiple births, and unintended pregnancies compared to native-born women. There is no evidence about this from a Swedish context nor about postpartum contraception.

The purpose of this project is to promote equity in sexual and reproductive health (SRH) in Sweden by improving the quality of postpartum contraceptive counselling for and with immigrant women.

The Swedish Pregnancy Registry (SPR) will be used to determine if there are any differences in birth spacing and associated complications when comparing immigrant and Swedish-born women. Registration of contraceptive methods in the SPR will be introduced. The IMPROVE-it project will increase the understanding of challenges to contraceptive services postpartum, and how to overcome these.
