Guest guest Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 There is an entire literature on women's dissatisfaction with OCPs; besides Mosher's stuff see anything by JA Rosenfeld. The problem to a great extent is that you have to separately hunt down all these various threads of evidence to put together an adequate case against them. To me, prescribing OCPs is like a kind of professional roulette, a corrupt medical risk-management scheme where numerous specialists kind of implicitly "agree" never or at least seldom to impugn the pill, or the practice of prescribing it.Sent from my iPhone Mosher at al….

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Pertinent to this conversation are the comparable continuation rates of NFP methods: Trussell discusses the importance of the continued use rates of a family planning method. A method will be discontinued if it has irritating side effects, is difficult to use, or not acceptable for some reason. Trussell mentions that he does not count “attempting to conceive” or “not having intercourse” as reasons for discontinuation since they do not apply for women or couples wishing to use the method for avoiding pregnancy. The continuation rate that Trussell provides for FABM is 46 per 100 women over 12 months of use. This rate was developed from the data in the 2002 NSFG. The rate of 46 is comparable to rate of 47 attributed to the use of spermicides, but much lower than the hormonal pill with a rate of 67. The SDM study had a continuation rate of 46%, the TDM 53%, the European STM 91%, and for the classic OM five country study 64%.11 J. Trussell, “Contraceptive Failure in the United States,” Contraception 83 (2011): 397-404. However, discontinuation and dissatisfaction is not the same variable -- I believe that NFP methods have a low discontinuation rate due to dissatisfaction -- which evidence I could share if I was in my office and not at home. ----or you could lok up the Winter Spring 2008 issue of CMR. And the Summer Fall 2008 issue has an article about discontinuation rates. J.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 It’s interesting that Trussel has changed the definition of discontinuation. When I wrote our NFP-a review, we had a 45% discontinuation rate for OM users because they changed to trying to conceive… In the light of Trussel’s new definition the discontinuations would have been much lower. hk From: nfpprofessionals [mailto:nfpprofessionals ] On Behalf Of Fehring, Sent: Sunday, March 11, 2012 4:11 PMTo: nfpprofessionals Subject: RE: Whats The Big Deal Pertinent to this conversation are the comparable continuation rates of NFP methods: Trussell discusses the importance of the continued use rates of a family planning method.
