目的：两年后，紧急避孕药（ECP）可在法国无处方，我们调查了ECP使用的决定因素在一个有代表性的样本的妇女在意外怀孕的风险。研究设计：本研究基于从探索避孕实践和堕胎的基于人群的队列（N=2863）中收集的数据。结果：在随访的第一年（2001年），706名有意外怀孕风险的妇女中，只有11.1%使用了ECP。在这一年中，关系稳定或使用相同避孕方法的妇女使用ECP的可能性低于其他妇女。该研究还表明，详细了解ECP增加了其随后使用的可能性。结论：鉴于在意外怀孕风险的情况下使用ECP的频率较低，这些结果表明，宣传活动不仅应针对不规则避孕做法的妇女，而且还应针对在使用常规避孕方法时遇到错误的妇女。
Objectives: Two years after emergency contraceptive pills (ECPs) were made available without prescription in France, we investigated the determinants of ECP use in a representative sample of women at risk for unintended pregnancy. Study Design: This study is based on data collected from a population-based cohort exploring contraceptive practices and abortion (N=2863). Results: Among the 706 women at risk for unintended pregnancy during the first year of follow-up (2001), only 11.1% used ECPs. Women in stable relationships or using the same contraceptive method during the year were less likely to use ECPs than other women. The study also demonstrates that detailed knowledge of ECPs increases the probability of its subsequent use. Conclusions: Given the low frequency of ECP use in cases of unintended pregnancy risk, these results suggest that information campaigns should be targeted not only at women with irregular contraceptive practices but also at women who experience errors in the use of their regular contraceptive method.
