We contend that while human rights principles are now widely integrated into the \"supply-side factors\" of contraceptive provision, particularly through the concept of quality of care and its metrics, their role in relation to \"demand-side factors\" remains ambiguous. We propose that human rights represent one of several normative frameworks to which both users and non-users may adhere when shaping their fertility preferences and decisions regarding contraception. To gain a deeper understanding of persistent obstacles on the demand side of contraceptive utilization, comprehensive data on attitudes toward sexuality and motherhood at both individual and community levels, as well as nuanced indicators of knowledge and acceptance of contraception among all women, are essential. Such data could facilitate examination of how exposure to human rights-based sexual and reproductive health programs influences normative contexts, individual empowerment among women, and the demand for contraception.

Despite several FP programs designed to make contraceptives accessible, adoption of contraceptives has been difficult in Cambodia, which has high rates of fertility and maternal mortality.

The intrauterine device (IUD) is the most common method of reversible contraception in women. However, its insertion is not without risk, it can cause early or late complications. IUD can perforate the uterus wall and migrate into adjacent structures.</p><p><strong>Case presentation: </strong>A 35 year-old female 5 gravid, 4 para has been benefited from intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) 5 years ago, she was presented to gynecological consultation for chronic pelvic pain with urinary symptoms. There was history of a good IUD insertion 5 years ago, considered expelled after one month of its pose. Physical examination was normal, but a pelvic ultrasound and a plain abdominal radiography allowed the detection of an IUD outside the uterine cavity, but inside bladder. A diagnostic and therapeutic cystoscopy was performed, and the IUD with calculus was successfully removed. There were no postoperative complications.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>This case is reported to highlight and to reiterate the need to think about one of the rare complication of IUD insertion, which every practitioner must know, it's the transuterovesical migration, before concluding wrongly to its expulsion. It's a consequence of, non-compliance with the rules for inserting an IUD and poor monitoring. The evolution towards calcification is a certain consequence; its screening involves rigorous clinical monitoring.</p>","PeriodicalId":93956,"journal":{"name":"Contraception and reproductive medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11351088/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142082888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
