“…First of all, the reasons of contraception failure and the effect of emergency contraception are immeasurable, although the previous studies have disputed such reasons about whether the widespread use of emergency contraception could have reduced the abortion rates [48,49,50,51]. Secondly, due to the private and sensitive nature of induced abortions and sexual behavior, the rate of induced abortions could have possibly been underestimated.…”

This study attempted to explore how informed choice on contraceptive methods influenced induced abortions among reproductive-age immigrant women in China. A total of 3230 participants were recruited in Beijing, Shanghai, and Chongqing. Information on informed choice was collected by questionnaires. The annual incidence rate (spells) of induced abortions was 0.46 (1500/3230) among the participants. The sequence from the highest score to the lowest was long-term, short-term and natural contraceptive methods (p < 0.0001). Significant differences of rates in induced abortions were found in region, occupation, length of the first immigration up to now (year), purpose for immigration, number of children, marital status, sex preference, contraceptive methods, deciders of contraceptive methods and side effects. In the zero-inflated negative binomial model, the joint impacts showed when a participant with one child employed condoms or family planning service providers as the deciders of contraceptive methods introduced intrauterine devices, the occurrence of induced abortions was more likely to be reduced. Women who underwent side effects using pills were more likely to have had induced abortions.

Literature regarding college student health has documented inadequate education and treatment of certain conditions such as mental health, preventive care, and sexual and reproductive health services. While some health services are available for students on campus, evidence suggests many at‐risk students do not utilize these services. Pharmacists are well‐suited to provide these services to college students, although there is a paucity of published data on the impact and outcomes of pharmacist intervention(s). This paper establishes the need for health interventions in college students, describes evidence supporting the role of a pharmacist on college campuses, and explores opportunities for pharmacists to address these unmet needs. A PubMed search was conducted for studies on college student health and services involving pharmacists using search terms encompassing college students and health‐related keywords. Studies written in English were considered and references from searched studies were manually reviewed for inclusion. When available, studies regarding pharmacist‐specific interventions on college health issues were included. Pharmacists can play a critical role in the treatment and management of psychiatric illnesses on college campuses. Data supporting psychiatric pharmacist recommendations are available. Further, pharmacists have shown interest and patient acceptance when providing sexual and reproductive services, including pharmacist‐provided prescription contraceptive products and preventive health services. Pharmacists can also influence preventive care practices on college campuses through health education including opioid use disorder, preventing overdose, and providing immunizations. While data demonstrate the positive impact pharmacists have on college students related to mental health, preventive health, and sexual health and reproductive services, available evidence is somewhat limited. However, ample opportunities exist to expand this impact. To more clearly and consistently demonstrate their impact on the college student population, pharmacists providing these services should be strongly encouraged to publish their work.

Women in Oregon who were not aware of emergency contraception before pregnancy were more likely to have had an unintended birth when their marital status and age were taken into account. Unintended birth was more likely among women who were young, unmarried, lower income, and uninsured. Given that emergency contraception is now available over-the-counter in the US to women who are 18 years of age or older, age- and culturally-appropriate public health messages should be developed to expand women's awareness of, dispel myths around, and encourage appropriate use of emergency contraception as a tool to help prevent unintended pregnancy and birth.
