Factors associated with contraceptive nonuse among US women ages 35-44 years at risk of unwanted pregnancy.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Women ages 35 years and older have the greatest proportion of contraceptive nonuse and unintended pregnancies ending in abortion. STUDY DESIGN:We conducted a population-based case-control study among women ages 35-44 years at risk of unwanted pregnancy using the National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) data to investigate risk factors for contraceptive nonuse. RESULTS:At last intercourse, 9.8% of women reported not using any contraceptive method. Contraceptive nonusers, as compared to users, were more likely to be ages 40-44 years (OR=2.0, 95% CI 1.1-3.7), foreign-born (OR=4.3, 95% CI 1.9-9.7), black (OR=2.8, 95% CI 1.1-7.0), with household incomes 100-249% of the federal poverty level (FPL) (OR=2.5, 95% CI 1.1-5.8). Women who received contraceptive counseling in the past year had an 80% decreased risk of nonuse (95% CI 0.1-0.5). CONCLUSION:Public health strategies to reduce unintended pregnancy, particularly among women ages 35 years and older, should focus on addressing disparities in contraceptive use and promoting contraceptive counseling.
