Introduction: Access to family and reproductive planning is a right for everyone. The intrauterine device (IUD) is a low-cost, long-term effective contraceptive option but paradoxically still has low usage rates in primary health care (PHC) services. IUD insertion and removal are part of the competency-based curriculum of the Family Practice Residency and the Primary Health Care Services Portfolio. Experience report: As part of the curricular program of the Family Practice residency at Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, I participated in an internship at a tertiary hospital for IUD insertion training. After the training, I sought, with the family health strategy team where I currently work, to develop a protocol for access to the contraceptive method. The availability of the resource increased the service’s resolvability and, at the same time, enabled the exercise of coordinated work and health management experience. Discussion: The establishment of IUD insertion increases the service’s resolvability and strengthens the movement to value PHC. One may observe that patients had a greater role in their care, adjusting it to their sociocultural context, facilitated by the bond with professionals who take care of themselves and their families on an ongoing basis. Conclusion: Training in IUD insertion and its implementation in the service portfolio of a health unit expanded my ability to manage teamwork, in a progressive way of care, offering comprehensive health care and service resolvability. These factors reaffirm the idea that it is possible to provide excellent public health, strengthening what is stipulated in the constitution.
