Abstract

Because use of sexual health services among American Indian/Alaska Native women is understudied we: (1) examined disparities in use of sexual health services between American Indian/Alaska Native and non-Hispanic white women and (2) identified factors associated with service use among American Indian/Alaska Native women. We used data from the National Survey of Family Growth regarding the use of sexual health services collected between 2006 and 2010 from women aged 15-44 years who self-identified as American Indian/Alaska Native (n = 819) and white (n = 6,196). Weighted logistic regression models estimated the likelihood of reporting the use of sexual health services by race and factors associated with use in the American Indian/Alaska Native sample. Compared to whites, American Indian/Alaska Native women were less likely to use birth control services and more likely to use services for sexually transmitted diseases and HIV. Among American Indian/Alaska Natives, younger women were more likely to use birth control services, and women who had a higher number of sexual partners were more likely to use services for sexually transmitted diseases and HIV. Our results provide a national baseline against which to assess disparities and changes in the use of sexual health services among American Indian/Alaska Native women over time.

摘要

由于对美国印第安/阿拉斯加原住民女性的性健康服务使用情况研究不足,我们:(1)研究了美国印第安/阿拉斯加原住民女性与非西班牙裔白人女性在性健康服务使用方面的差异,以及(2)确定了与美国印第安/阿拉斯加原住民女性服务使用相关的因素。我们使用了来自全国家庭成长调查的数据,这些数据是关于2006年至2010年期间从15至44岁、自我认定为美国印第安/阿拉斯加原住民(n = 819)和白人(n = 6,196)的女性中收集到的性健康服务使用情况。加权逻辑回归模型估计了按种族报告使用性健康服务的可能性以及与美国印第安/阿拉斯加原住民样本中使用相关的因素。与白人相比,美国印第安/阿拉斯加原住民女性使用避孕服务的可能性较小,而使用性传播疾病和艾滋病毒服务的可能性较大。在美国印第安/阿拉斯加原住民中,年轻女性使用避孕服务的可能性较大,而性伴侣数量较多的女性使用性传播疾病和艾滋病毒服务的可能性较大。我们的结果提供了一个全国性的基线,可据此评估美国印第安/阿拉斯加原住民女性随着时间推移在性健康服务使用方面的差异和变化。
