  • Title: [Incidence and outcome of pregnancies with contraception].
    Author: Neumann HG, Dässler U, Wanitschke A.
    Journal: Z Arztl Fortbild Qualitatssich; 1997 Jul; 91(4):389-93. PubMed ID: 9340211.
    Abstract:
    In 1992, 1531 women aging 25-45 years from 5 urban and rural regions were interviewed about infertility and subfecundity within the German part of a study by the European community. 1248 of them had a positive reproductive history with 3018 pregnancies. 400 (= 13.25%) occurred during contraception. This affected 296 women (= 19.6% of all women). Smoking seems to have a promotion effect. The risk of ectopic pregnancies seems to be higher in contraceptive users. The highest fetal loss was found in women using an IUD. There were no differences in the course and outcome of pregnancy between users and nonusers of contraceptives. About 40% of the women in the corresponding group reported an irregular application of the contraceptive technique.
