“…11 Such an approach results in the provision of quality family planning counseling that is more likely to convince a woman to adopt and continue a contraceptive method. 12,13 Long-acting reversible contraceptives are highly effective methods of family planning that do not require use at the time of intercourse nor frequent administration. They can decrease unwanted pregnancies by reducing barriers to correct and consistent contraceptive use.…”

Objective To assess the effects of strengthening family planning capacity on the uptake of long acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) methods at two primary health centers. Methods Between April 2016 and March 2017, the Society of Gynecologists and Obstetricians of Burkina Faso (SOGOB) increased the capacity of two primary health centers in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, to offer LARC methods by training staff and providing family planning equipment and commodities. Uptake of LARC methods was compared between the year preceding the intervention and the year during the intervention. Results Within a year, the number of new users of family planning increased 2.8‐fold from 2936 new users before the intervention to 8267 during it. The rate of new users of contraception increased 1.9‐fold (14.9% vs 28.1%; P<0.001) for all LARC methods, 2.4‐fold for intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCDs), and 1.7‐fold for subdermal contraceptive implants. The proportion of new users of the copper IUCD younger than 25 years was higher during the intervention than before it (57.2% vs 46.9%; P=0.026). Conclusion The SOGOB's family planning intervention resulted in an increase in the use of LARC methods at the two primary health centers.

Introduction. The maternal mortality ratio (MMR) in Indonesia reaches 359 per 100,000 live births. The long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) method is an effective contraceptive choice for reducing MMR. The contraceptive implant is one of the LARCs that has low usage due to lack of education about the side effects. This study aims to compare the menstrual pattern and characteristics between one-rod and two-rod levonorgestrel implant users. Methods. A prospective cohort study was performed in patients at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM) from March 2016 to May 2018. Subject recruitment was done by consecutive sampling. This study was conducted from March 2016 until May 2019. Statistical analysis was performed on the data using the chi-square test to determine the relationship between menstrual pattern and characteristics, and the use of one-rod or two-rod levonorgestrel implants. Results. A total of 140 subjects participated in the study, comprising 70 (50%) one-rod users and 70 (50%) two-rod users. In the first month, 32.9% one-rod users experienced amenorrhea, 22.9% experienced shortened menstrual period, 30% experienced normal menstrual period, and 14,2 % experienced lengthened menstrual period. In comparison, in the first month, 41.4% two-rod users experienced amenorrhea, 15.7% experienced shortened menstrual period, 32.9% experienced normal menstrual period, and 10% experienced lengthened menstrual period. There was no significant difference in menstrual patterns and characteristics between one-rod and two-rod levonorgestrel implant users. Conclusion. There was no significant difference in menstrual patterns and characteristics between one-rod and two-rod levonorgestrel implant users. Implications. Menstrual patterns and characteristics from levonorgestrel implants user can help clinicians to reduce discontinuation rate from the acceptors. Further research should be conducted to know other side effects aside from menstrual bleeding patterns.
