The probability of pregnancy in 100 episodes of sexual intercourse: A measure of male contraceptive performance
The prevention of unintended pregnancy by a male contraceptive is strongly influenced by both method efficacy and sexual frequency. Probability of Pregnancy<sub>100</sub> may offer a better measure of male contraceptive efficacy compared to the Pearl index and life table analysis as it takes sexual frequency into account; however, Probability of Pregnancy<sub>100</sub> will need to be tested prospectively in male contraceptive studies alongside the Pearl index and life table analysis to determine its utility compared to these existing measures of contraceptive efficacy.
