Abstract

Objective: To explore characteristics of parents who prefer an intrauterine device (IUD) or implant compared to all other contraceptive methods. Study design: Parents with an adolescent daughter completed a cross-sectional survey. The outcome evaluated the parent's perceived “best” contraceptive method for their daughter using bivariate statistics and multivariable modeling. Results: Of 115 parents, parental willingness to use IUD or implant themselves (p = 0.014) and thinking IUD or implant is best at preventing pregnancy (p = 0.001) remained positively associated with parents thinking IUD or implant is the “best” contraceptive method for their daughter. Conclusions: Clinicians can consider integrating parents’ personal experiences with IUD or implant during adolescent contraception counseling. Implications: Caregivers’ personal contraceptive knowledge and personal willingness to use LARC influences their preferences for their daughter's contraception. Clinicians can assess and integrate caregivers’ perspectives during adolescent contraception counseling.
