editFamily Planning and Access to Safe and Legal Abortion Are Vital to Safeguard the Environment http://www.arhp.org/Publications-and-Resources/Contraception-Journal/December-2007
Of 210 million pregnancies annually worldwide, 80 million (38%) are unplanned, and 46 million (22%) end in abortion, 34 million unintended births. (By comparison - US % unplannned, % abortion?) In US of 6.1 million pregnancies in 2001, half were unintended (as were more than 80% of the 800,000 annual teen pregnancies), resulting in 1.3 million abortions, 4 million births (of which one-third were unintended) and 800,000 miscarriages.

Plan for mother and child health.
For maternal and baby’s health, wait until mother is at least 18 years old, before trying to become pregnant.[1]
Spacing
editIf desire an additional child, healthiest for mother and succeeding child to wait at least 2 years after previous birth before attempting to conceive (but not more than 5 years).[1] After a miscarriage or abortion, wait at least 6 months.[1]
Child spacing less than 18 months or more than 5 years resulted in increased risk of premature birth or low birth rate. [2]
"4 million babies die each year within a month of birth, including almost 19,000 in the U.S. The World Health Organization estimates that just over a fourth of these deaths are directly related to premature birth."
"In the United States between 6% and 10% of pregnancies among women who have already given birth occur less than six months after childbirth."
"Researchers found that infants born to women who conceived less than six months after giving birth had a 40% increased risk for being born prematurely and a 61% increased risk of low birth weight, compared with infants born to mothers who waited 18 months to two years between pregnancies." [3] (Based on article in JAMA)
Resources
editRaising a child uses significant amount of resources. Money[4], time[5], social, environmental. Planning can help assure that resources are available. (needs citation)
Financial
editChildbirth and prenatal health care cost averaged $7,090 for normal delivery in 1996.[6]
Estimated expenses raise child born in 2007 to age 17:
$196,010 $269,040 $393,230 (low mid high income groups)[5]
11,500 15,800 23,100 (average annual expenditure).
College expenses (average annual expenses 2007-2008)[5]
at 4-year public colleges (in-State) tuition and fees averaged $6,185, room and board $7,404
at 4-year private (nonprofit) colleges tuition and fees averaged $23,712, room and board $8,595
For 2-year public colleges, tuition and fees averaged $2,360
"College Board (2008) estimated that in 2007-2008, annual average (enrollment-weighted) tuition and fees were $6,185 at 4-year public colleges (in-State tuition) and $23,712 at 4-year private (nonprofit) colleges; annual room and board was $7,404 at 4-year public colleges and $8,595 at 4-year private colleges. For 2-year colleges in 2007-2008, annual average tuition and fees were $2,360 at public colleges."[5]

"The 80 million unintended pregnancies that occur worldwide each year (38% of all pregnancies) can justifiably be deemed an “epidemic.” These pregnancies result in 42 million induced abortions and 34 million unintended births — births that contribute substantially to the annual world population growth of 78 million.1,2"(Speidel)

"Among sexually active women who were not trying to become pregnant, more than one in five reported that they would be very pleased to learn they were pregnant and 18% reported that avoiding pregnancy was only a little or not important.12 Such women have been found to be at elevated risk for pregnancy, even while using contraceptives, and could be empowered by receiving increased information about their personal risk of pregnancy as well as information about preconception care (planned pregnancies are healthy pregnancies)."(Singh)
"In a recent study, 38% of women using reversible methods chose their current method primarily because they did not like any other method.12"(Singh)

note #) about half of unintended pregnancies in USA from not using contraception during month got pregnant.
According to Frost, et al., Guttmacher Institute, about half (52%) of the unintended pregnancies in the USA resulted from not using contraception during the month got pregnant [check wording] (No method), 43% of unintended pregnancies resulted from inconsistent or incorrect use of method ("typical use"), and only 5% were due to method failures ("ideal use"). (Speidel)
Younger have larger percentage using no method (15-19) 18%, (20-14) 12.1%
Younger less likely to use most effective methods. (15-19) - IUD (0.2%), No sterilization.
Younger more likely use Depot. (15-19) 11.4%
Although it is not done for purposes of contraception, a significant proportion of US women (33-40%) have undergone hysterectomy, which has a side effect of preventing pregnancy in most cases.

Higher cost contraceptives may be more profitable for manufacturer, pills might bring $1,000 profit over 10 years, whereas a copper IUD might yield $200 profit.(speidel) Higher cost contraceptives like the pill are more heavily marketed, where little is spent marketing IUD.(speidel)
- Check - costs, if 20% remove IUD/implant during 1st year??. Another cost problem (cost of removal haven't amortized over very long use)
High initial cost - large copay or lack of insurance makes long term methods unafordable, though more effective and much less costly over time.(Speidel)
Cost - marketing forces. Paragard costs $200 (public sector) in USA (more than 100 times the cost of manufacture).(Speidel)

Dual methods - using a condom along with other methods reduces costs and risks from STDs, and in most cases reduces preganancy risk. Most cost savings with withdrawal and periodic abstinence, also saves money for users of spermicides, the sponge, diaphragm and cap. Savings when combined with OC was small.
EC pill cost effective - even when assumed office visit, etc. (Even more so if OTC, etc.) IUD as EC not cost effective immediately, but takes only 4 months to become cost effective. [3]
Use of condom by adolescents in US is cost effective in preventing medical costs associated with STDs. Use in addition to other methods saves money over the cost of the method (when include medical cost of pregnancies and STD treatments).(trusell97)
Until recently in USA, IUD was not considered appropriate for use by adolescents, but now its use is encouraged.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 1999 declared family planning to be one of the 10 most significant U.S. public health achievements of the 20th century.

Preventing Unintended Pregnancy: The Need And the Means
By Adam Sonfield
[4]
One-quarter of the more than 20 million American women who obtain contraceptive services from a medical provider receive care from a publicly funded family planning clinic.[5] [5]
Estimates by the World Health Organization and the World Bank that $3.00 per person per year would provide basic family planning, maternal and neonatal health care to women in developing countries. The package would include contraception, prenatal, delivery and post-natal care in addition to postpartum family planning and the promotion of condoms to prevent sexually transmitted infections. [6]

My comments - would rather put history down with society & culture Where would you put physical and chemical properties? How can you deal with drug interactions, if haven't got mechanism of action already covered? Why put prevalence before mechanism of action (prevalence is social aspect, relates to effectiveness advantages & disadvantages), mechanism relates to physical & chem properties, drug interactions,

Approximately x% of women get pregnant, %pregnancies unintended.
Preparation - more successful outcomes (health, socio-economic, ...).
Contraception - help avoid pregnancy when not desired.
Fertility awareness, help achieve pregnancy when want.
BC Nav template
editBirth control methods - Order of section, why sterilization after post-coital, what is the order? (not alphabetical, not obviously by effectiveness, ...) not by prevalence (would be Sterilization, Intra-uterine, hormonal, barrier, behavioral, spermicide, anti-estrogen, - not sure where epc and abortion would come)
- Specifically strange item is the post intercourse. Why does it come where it does?
- Abortion is not a method of contraception (so should be after all contraceptive methods).
- EPC acts primarily as hormonal/intra-uterine contraceptive.
- Also, in BC article - doesn't make sense to put EPC between IUD and abortion, EPC is either hormonal or IUD, so should go between those two.
- Abortion is not a method of contraception (so should be after all contraceptive methods).
(Behavioral is also odd since it includes contraceptive and non-contraceptive methods), but at least it goes at the end.
- The invasiveness/reversability ordering doesn't make a whole lot of sense now, hormonal is all over the map, from pill (which have to be careful if miss a day or so(?)), to implant, which requires anesthesia/surgery and is probably more invasive than IUD, Depo requires months for reversal (if memory serves).
