We carried out a survey to find the contraception practices and experiences of Saudi Arabian females. A preset questionnaire was developed, and married Saudi females were asked to answer the questionnaire. Between July and December 2008, 215 women completed the questionnaire. The average age was 37.6 ± 9.1 years. One hundred and sixty one of the women said they were using contraception. Fifty-nine (36.6%) said they were using oral contraception pills (OCP) and 32 (19.9%) said they were using intra-uterine contraceptive devices (IUCDs). One hundred and twenty-seven (78.8%) of the women were satisfied with the contraception they were using. We found that a majority of Saudi women are using contraception methods but without medical advice.
我们开展了一项调查，以了解沙特阿拉伯女性的避孕措施及经历。我们制定了一份预先设定好的问卷，并要求已婚沙特女性回答该问卷。在2008年7月至12月期间，215名女性完成了问卷。平均年龄为37.6±9.1岁。其中161名女性表示她们正在采取避孕措施。59名（36.6%）表示她们正在使用口服避孕药，32名（19.9%）表示她们正在使用宫内节育器。127名（78.8%）女性对她们所使用的避孕措施感到满意。我们发现，大多数沙特女性在没有医学建议的情况下使用避孕方法。
