Fertility surveys have rarely asked people who are using contraception about the contraceptive method they would like to be using, implicitly assuming that those who are contracepting are using the method they want. In this commentary, we review evidence from a small but growing body of work that oftentimes indicates this assumption is untrue. Discordant contraceptive preferences and use are relatively common, and unsatisfied preferences are associated with higher rates of method discontinuation and subsequent pregnancy. We argue that there is opportunity to center autonomy and illuminate the need for and quality of services by building on this research and investing in the development of survey items that assess which method people would like to use, as well as their reasons for nonpreferred use. The widespread adoption of questions regarding method preferences could bring indicators of reproductive health services into closer alignment with the needs of the people they serve.

“…Self-care options might also better align with people's contraceptive preferences. Evidence from the United States (US) and many low and middle-income countries (LMICs) reflects that the top user-preferred contraceptive features are effectiveness at preventing pregnancy, ease of use, and causing few or no side effects ( 8 – 11 ). However, another important feature is that the method can be stopped at any time, or that women themselves have control over the discontinuation of the method ( 8 , 12 ).…”
