Levels, Trends, and Reasons for Contraceptive Discontinuation

Sarah Bradley; Hilary Schwandt, and Shane Khan · 2009

Catalogue summary

Two rounds of demographic surveys across eight countries, including Armenia, show first-year contraceptive discontinuation ranging from 18 to 63 percent and frequent stopping despite continued desire to avoid pregnancy.

Why this matters

Including Armenia in a comparable reproductive-health design helps policymakers track switching, failure, and abandonment that can raise unwanted pregnancy and abortion.
