Journal ArticleDOI

Sexuality and obesity, a gender perspective: results from French national random probability survey of sexual behaviours

TL;DR: There is a link between BMI and sexual behaviour and adverse sexual health outcomes, with obese women less likely to access contraceptive healthcare services and having more unplanned pregnancies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contraception: from accessibility to efficiency

TL;DR: A cross-sectional population-based survey was designed to study the characteristics of current contraceptive use in France, the different types of contraceptive failure, and the reasons reported for not using contraception, showing a misadaptation between women's contraceptive needs and the method they use.
Journal ArticleDOI

Research on HIV Sexual Risk : Social Relations-based Approach in a Cross-Cultural Perspective

TL;DR: The analysis shows that sexual behaviour and preventive behaviour patterns of men and women appear to be linked to women's status in a given society, and the balance of power within the couple, and even characteristics of the former relationship help explain these behaviour differences.
Journal Article

Analysis of sexual behaviour in France (ACSF): A comparison between two modes of investigation: Telephone survey and face-to-face survey.

TL;DR: It is found that questions were more easily answered and answers more coherent in the telephone survey, while a face-to-face survey generates a greater diversity in answers and reduces the tendency to give answers relating to behaviours or attitudes that are socially desirable.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contraceptive failure rates in France: results from a population-based survey.

TL;DR: Lower failure rates among French women compared with those reported for US women suggest differences in contraceptive practices which need to be further explored.
