Abstract
Objective: We examined the differences in postpartum contraception between patients with and without opioid use disorder (OUD). Study Design: We conducted a retrospective, single-institution, cohort analysis assessing differences in desired method of postpartum contraception and plan fulfillment. Results: Patients with OUD comprised 200/8654 (2.3%) of our study cohort. After 2:1 matching, method desired (matched odds ratio [mOR] 0.86, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.60–1.23 for highly vs. moderately effective) and receipt (mOR 0.77, 95% CI 0.53–1.12) of desired method were comparable between groups. Conclusion: Patients with and without OUD were similar in their choice and fulfillment of postpartum contraception.
