Cu T Multiload 375 was inserted after obtaining written consent. 75 women from each group, i.e. vaginal and caesarean delivery groups were studied and compared for a period of 6 months. RESULTS 57.33% of women from vaginal group and 60% of women from caesarean group had no complaints. Overall, 12% of women had menstrual disturbances. Expulsion rate was higher in vaginal group (9.33%) and rate of missing strings was higher in caesarean group (17.33%) with removal of Cu T in 10.6% and 17.3% in vaginal and caesarean group respectively.
