Perspectives on Contraceptives: Insights From Care Providers and Women With Lived Experiences of Unintended Pregnancy in the Netherlands
Women with unintended pregnancies mention a lack of suitable contraceptive options and failing contraception as important factors for unintended pregnancy, whereas care providers view the perception of contraception as being unnecessary and psychosocial adversity as important factors in unintended pregnancies. These differences point to the importance of explicitly asking about and addressing the perspectives of women in contraceptive counseling.
