To determine to what extent women adopted highly effective contraceptive methods after a legal abortion.
The data available during a period before and another period after liberalization of the abortion law were reviewed. The data gathering was incomplete and reliable only during certain periods, which were used in the study.
There was an increase in the proportion of women who returned for contraception and in the proportion who used any method and long-acting methods; however, no contraception was administered immediately after abortion and only 16% of all women treated started to use a long-acting method during the period after the law was liberalized.
The proposed objective was not being achieved, the recommended guidelines were not being followed, and data gathering was incomplete. Good intentions are not enough and it is always necessary to evaluate the performance of a program. The results indicate that immediate reforms are necessary in postabortion contraception services.
确定女性在合法堕胎后采用高效避孕方法的程度。
回顾了堕胎法自由化前后两个时期可得的数据。数据收集在某些时期不完整且仅在这些时期可靠,这些数据被用于研究。
返回进行避孕的女性比例以及采用任何方法和长效方法的女性比例有所增加;然而,堕胎后未立即进行避孕,在法律自由化后的时期,所有接受治疗的女性中只有16%开始采用长效方法。
既定目标未达成,推荐的指导方针未得到遵循,且数据收集不完整。仅有良好意愿是不够的,始终有必要评估一项计划的实施情况。结果表明堕胎后避孕服务需要立即进行改革。
