Journal ArticleDOI
Contraceptive failure in the United States
TL;DR: This review provides an update of previous estimates of first-year probabilities of contraceptive failure for all methods of contraception available in the United States and reflects new research on contraceptive failure both during perfect use and during typical use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age and infertility
TL;DR: Results imply that a woman in a monogamous union faces only moderate increases in the probability of becoming sterile (or infecund) until her late thirties, and appears that recent changes in reproductive behavior were guaranteed to result in the perception that infecunda is on the rise.
Journal ArticleDOI
The risk of pregnancy after tubal sterilization: Findings from the U.S. collaborative review of sterilization
Herbert B. Peterson,Zhisen Xia,Joyce M. Hughesa,Lynne S. Wilcox,Lisa Ratliff Tylora,James Trussell +5 more
TL;DR: Although tubal sterilization is highly effective, the risk of sterilization failure is higher than generally reported and the risk persists for years after the procedure and varies by method of tubal occlusion and age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimates of contraceptive failure from the 2002 National Survey of Family Growth
Kathryn Kost,Susheela Singh,Barbara Vaughan,James Trussell,James Trussell,Akinrinola Bankole +5 more
TL;DR: There was no clear improvement in contraceptive effectiveness between 1995 and 2002, and failure rates remain high for users of the condom, withdrawal and fertility-awareness methods, but for all methods, the risk of failure is greatly affected by socioeconomic characteristics of the users.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contraceptive failure, method-related discontinuation and resumption of use: results from the 1995 National Survey of Family Growth.
James Trussell,Barbara Vaughan +1 more
TL;DR: The risks of pregnancy during typical use of reversible methods of contraception are considerably higher than risks of failure during clinical trials, reflecting imperfect use of these methods rather than lack of inherent efficacy.
