Abstract
Objective: To compare the perception of women about the IUD, before and after the puerperal consultation, at high-risk public maternity hospital, where the device is inserted Methods: This is a cross-sectional study, conducted with 348 women and constitutes the analysis of questionnaires that are applied before and after puerperal consultation, those who wish to insert the intrauterine device offered in the unit. Data are stratified and compared by age and education level. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The study was approved by the research ethics committee. Results: The sample, with a mean age of 27 years, had a majority with high school education (64.4%). Of these, pre-insertion 23.9% believed they would feel constrained and 43.8% attributed very intense pain to the procedure. Finally, the numbers dropped to just 9.7% and 14.1% respectively. Conclusion: It is concluded that the fear of the procedure directly influences the patient's expectation, causing her to attribute a much higher degree of pain than the actual one related to it. Regardless of age and education level, this hypothesis was confirmed
