Abstract

Middle-aged women in China face health risks from prolonged IUD use, often beyond recommended durations, with postmenopausal women at higher risk. Current healthcare services lack proactive support, particularly for removal. Daughters, motivated to help, face barriers like trust gaps and limited knowledge. To address this, we developed the Daughter-led IUD Care app, which raises awareness, reduces surgical fears, and offers professional guidance. The app features four modules: Community Sharing, Workshop Reservations, Knowledge Learning, and Hospital Reservations. Evaluation shows the app improved mothers' willingness to remove IUDs and enhanced daughters' support. By leveraging family bonds, it fills gaps in healthcare programs and offers a model for integrating familial support into public health strategies.
