To describe abortion history and current contraceptive use among female sex workers (FSWs) in Moscow, Russia.
A clinic-based survey was conducted among 147 FSWs in Moscow during an 8-month period in 2005.
In total, 83 of 143 (58.0%) FSWs reported a history of abortion, with 45 of 143 (31.5%) indicating multiple abortions. Condoms were the primary form of contraception (145/146 [99.3%]); just 17 of 142 (12.0%) FSWs reported using non-barrier modern contraception. All women who reported using a non-barrier modern method also indicated condom use (i.e. dual protection). Non-barrier contraceptive use was associated with inconsistent condom use (odds ratio [OR] 3.10; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07-9.02) and multiple abortions (OR 4.71; 95% CI, 1.19-18.62).
The results illustrate substantial risk for unintended pregnancy among FSWs. Further research is needed regarding the dynamics of non-barrier contraception and condom use. Efforts to improve the health and wellbeing of FSWs should include access to safe and effective contraception, in addition to HIV prevention.
描述俄罗斯莫斯科地区性工作者(FSWs)的堕胎史和当前避孕措施使用情况。
2005 年,在莫斯科进行了一项为期 8 个月的基于诊所的调查,共纳入了 147 名 FSWs。
在 143 名 FSWs 中,共有 83 名(58.0%)报告有堕胎史,其中 45 名(31.5%)报告有多次堕胎。避孕套是主要的避孕方式(145/146 [99.3%]);只有 17 名(12.0%)FSWs 报告使用非屏障现代避孕方法。所有报告使用非屏障现代避孕方法的女性都表示同时使用了避孕套(即双重保护)。非屏障避孕措施与避孕套使用不规律(比值比 [OR] 3.10;95%置信区间 [CI],1.07-9.02)和多次堕胎(OR 4.71;95% CI,1.19-18.62)相关。
研究结果表明 FSWs 意外怀孕的风险很大。需要进一步研究非屏障避孕措施和避孕套使用的动态。改善 FSWs 健康和福祉的努力应包括获得安全有效的避孕措施,除 HIV 预防外。
