监测美国15-19岁青少年的性活动和避孕药具使用情况有助于了解怀孕风险。到2018年，美国青少年的出生率从1991年的峰值下降了72%（1），与青少年怀孕率的下降同步（1，2）。虽然这代表了国家目标的进展，但这些比率仍然高于其他发达国家（3，4）。本报告使用2002年至2015年至2017年全国家庭增长调查（NSFG）的数据，提供了青少年性活动和避孕药具使用的趋势和全国估计数。
Monitoring sexual activity and contraceptive use among teenagers aged 15-19 in the United States informs understanding of the risk of pregnancy. By 2018, the U.S. birth rate for teenagers dropped 72% from its peak in 1991 (1), paralleling a decline in the teen pregnancy rate (1,2). While this represents progress toward national goals, these rates are still higher than those in other developed countries (3,4). Using data from the 2002 through 2015-2017 National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG), this report provides trends and national estimates of sexual activity and contraceptive use among teenagers.
