Recently unintended pregnancies have been described as "a new kind of mid-life crisis." Given the high prevalence of unwanted or mistimed pregnancy in the US, we examined the sexual and reproductive health patterns of sexually active midlife women. An examination of the prevalence of unintended pregnancy among midlife women revealed a gap in data indicating unmet sexual and reproductive health needs of midlife women. The application of a framework for primary, secondary and tertiary prevention for unintended pregnancy may assist with guiding care for women and identifying implications for reproductive health policy and potential political interference as they relate to sexual and reproductive health in midlife women.
最近，意外怀孕被描述为“一种新型的中年危机”。鉴于美国意外怀孕或时机不当怀孕的高发生率，我们研究了性活跃中年女性的性与生殖健康模式。对中年女性意外怀孕发生率的调查揭示了数据上的差距，这表明中年女性未得到满足的性与生殖健康需求。应用针对意外怀孕的一级、二级和三级预防框架，可能有助于指导对女性的护理，并确定与中年女性性与生殖健康相关的生殖健康政策及潜在政治干预的影响。
