Trends in the use of contraceptive methods and voluntary interruption of pregnancy in the Spanish population during 1997–2007
Resum
Background: This study was designed to acquire information about the use of contraceptive methods in order to reduce the number of elective abortions. Study Design: Since 1997, representative samples of Spanish women of childbearing potential (15–49 years) have been surveyed by the Daphne Team every 2 years to gather data of contraceptive methods used. Results: During the study period, 1997 to 2007, the overall use of contraceptive methods increased from 49.1% to 79.9%. The most commonly used method was the condom (an increase from 21% to 38.8%), followed by the pill (an increase from 14.2% to 20.3%). Female sterilization and IUDs decreased slightly and were used by less than 5% of women in 2007. The elective abortion rate increased from 5.52 to 11.49 per 1000 women. Conclusions: The factors responsible for the increased rate of elective abortion need further investigation. (Resumen extraído del artículo)Fitxa bibliogràfica
