Nepal Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) 2011 shows that IUD uptake continues to remain as low as 1.3% among married woman. IUD is a non-hormonal contraceptive device that prevents unwanted pregnancy up to 10 years. It is considered as one of the most cost effective contraceptive and sustainable contraceptive as it requires only one visit to health providers.
It is important to explore the socio-cultural barriers, including role of husbands, in IUD uptake. I would appreciate if you could provide me specific study findings related to this issue.
I would suggest you to use the Turkish and Iranian studies printed in respected journals about the topic. These usually contain large patient numbers and may also reflect the oriental socio cultural perceptions. IUD is a very good option for long term contraception as you have stated, but of course socio cultural influences and the ideas of men can be a barrier. Best regards.
Dear Kazim,
Thank you for information. I would appreciate if you could kindly suggest the specific Journals and Volumes.

I would suggest Contraception, International Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics and Turkish Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology.( http://www.tjoddergisi.org). this last one is the journal of Turkish Obstetrics and Gynecology society has free pdf's and prints good articles.
Best regards.

Please look for a qualitative study on use and discontinuation of IUD in Ghana by Gbagbo and Kayi 2018. The paper provides useful information to address your concerns.
Best wishes.
