India is the second most populated country in the world. Currently India's population is around 1.3 Billion. Unwanted pregnancy and less knowledge about contraception is the prime reason for it. IUCD is a type of long acting reversible contraception (LARC). Insertion of IUCD within 10 minutes of delivery of placenta in vaginal delivery is post placental IUCD insertion. Intra caesarean insertion is after placenta delivery and prior to uterine closure. This retrospective study was conducted in Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Maulana Azad Medical College and Lok Nayak Hospital, New Delhi. Data of all delivered patients between March 2013 to February 2017, Having IUCD insertion after vaginal delivery as well as after caesarean is studied. During follow up of these patients it was found that missing IUCD was more common in patients with intra caesarean IUCD insertion. Common reason for this problem is coiling of thread in lower uterine segment or in cervical canal leading to failure of its descend through external cervical os.
