Investigators previously developed a guide to help people with IUD self-removal. In this randomized study, the goal is to see if this guide makes it easier for IUD-users to remove their own IUDs.
The main question the study aims to answer is:
-Does use of the previously developed IUD self-removal guide increase rates of self removal?
Participants will:
Investigators will compare rates of successful self-removal between those randomized to the guide to those randomized to no additional resource to see if increases success.

| IUD self-removal guide | Other | We previously developed an online guide for IUD self-removal through an iterative process including advice from key expert informants, focus groups, interviews, and a pilot clinical study. It includes an online animation, step-by-step guide, troubleshooting tips, and information about pregnancy and contraception. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Comparison of successful IUD self-removal rates | Successful self-removal will be reported by participants on the post-study survey and documented with an uploaded photo of the removed IUD on a study ruler sheet. Rates of successful self-removal will be compared between those randomized to the guide versus no additional resource. | The post study survey will be completed within 48 hours of study participation. Participants schedule their participation on average 1-3 months from study enrollment but up to 1 year (the duration of the study being open). |
