Study Summary

The specific aim of this study is to evaluate whether insertion of a long-acting contraceptive implant in postpartum adolescents prior to hospital discharge increases use of this highly effective contraception during the first twelve months postpartum among adolescents who elect Implanon® as their preferred method of contraception. Additionally, this study aims to compare the acceptability of bleeding in postpartum adolescents who have an etonogestrel contraceptive implant prior to discharge versus those with insertion at the six week postpartum visit. The investigators will evaluate the acceptability of bleeding rather than collect prospective diaries because the investigators feel subjective perceptions of bleeding impact contraceptive continuation more than quantitative differences in bleeding.
