Effectiveness of Family Planning Policies: The Abortion Paradox

Abstract: ObjectiveThe relation between levels of contraceptive use and the incidence of induced abortion remains a topic of heated debate. Many of the contradictions are likely due to the fact that abortion is the end point of a process that starts with sexual activity, contraceptive use (or non-use), followed by unwanted pregnancy, a decision to terminate, and access to abortion. Trends in abortion rates reflect changes in each step of this process, and opposing trends may cancel each other out. This paper aims to inv… Show more

“…At the beginning of the 1980s, national campaigns to prevent HIV led to the reintroduction into the Contraception 92 (2015) 46 -54 contraceptive repertoire of condoms [9], which until then were used mostly in the context of premarital intercourse and prostitution [10]. Since then, condom use as a contraceptive method has increased notably [11,12]. Nevertheless, the contraceptive landscape in France, as in most countries in the world (except in sub-Saharan Africa), remains dominated by highly effective female methods.…”

“…Tako, dakle, stopa prekida trudnoće je rezultat kompleksnog procesa koji ne zavisi samo od dostupnosti i upotrebe kontracepcije i njene efikasnosti, već i od promena u prokreativnim normama koje uslovljavaju odluku o završetku neželjene trudnoće. Iz tog razloga, u programima planiranja porodice umesto razmatranja stope prekida trudnoće u fokus je potrebno staviti stopu neželjenih trudnoća [41].…”

“…Concernant la pose de DIU et de l'implant contraceptif, les internes de médecine générale apparaissaient insuffisamment formés puisque plus de 50 % d'entre eux ne les ont jamais réalisés, et que seuls 35,6 % d'entre eux déclarent savoir poser un DIU, alors qu'il s'agit du deuxième moyen de contraception le plus utilisé en France (17,3 %), après la pilule contraceptive (45,4 %). Nos chiffres sont en cohérence avec l'étude FECOND 2012 qui révèle que 29 % seulement des médecins généralistes se disent préparés à la pose de stérilet à l'issue de leur cursus [3] . La HAS recommande pourtant une meilleure connaissance de son utilisation et des bonnes pratiques de sa pose, en raison de son efficacité et de son faible taux d'utilisation chez les jeunes femmes [16] .…”
