Analysis & Content Strategy: CLAP MUSA Network & Post-Abortion Contraception in Brazil
Overall Assessment: This source material details a prospective study conducted within the CLAP MUSA Network, specifically at the University of Campinas Women’s Hospital (UNICAMP) in Brazil, focusing on post-abortion care and, crucially, the uptake of intrauterine devices (IUDs) as a form of post-abortion contraception (PAC). It’s a strong foundation for several articles targeting different audiences and search intents. The data collection period (2017-2022) and the focus on a specific network and country provide a unique angle.
