METHODS: Data were collected through personal interviews with 12,571 men and women aged 15-44 years in the noninstitutionalized civilian population of the United States in 2002. This report was based on a sample of 7643 women surveyed in 2002. Response among women in the study amounted to about 80 percent.
The results of the first method of contraception in the United States in 2002, the contraceptive pill, used 11. 6 million women, the second method of attack was female sterilization, used 10. 3 million women. The condom is the third method, used by about 9 million women, and of their partners. Condoms are the leading method at first intercourse, the pill is the leading method among women younger than 30 years, and female sterilization is the leading method among women 35 and older.
More than 98 percent of women aged 15-44 years who ever had sex with men (dénommé”expérience Sexiest Women”) had used at least one contraceptive method. During the 20 years 1982-2002, per cent of those who ever partner, who used the male increased from 52 to 90 percent. The share of those who have already had a partner who used withdrawal increased from 25 percent in 1982 to 56 percent in 2002. Another important measure of contraceptive use was used at first sexual intercourse before marriage: before 1980, only 43 percent of women (or their partners) used a method of contraception in their sexual activity before marriage in the first place. In 1999-2002, the proportion method in the first premarital sexual contact has increased to 79 percent.

Highlights
Contraceptive use in the United States virtually universal among women of childbearing age: 98 percent of all women who have never used sex for at least one method of contraception. In 2002, 90 percent already had a partner who have used the male condom, 82 percent used the pill, while 56 percent already had a partner who will use the findings.
The first method of contraception in the United States in 2002, the contraceptive pill. It was used 11. 6 million women aged 15-44 years, he has never been used 44. 5 million women aged 15-44 years. The second way to attack, female sterilization, used by 10. 3 million women. Pills and female sterilization were the two leading methods in the United States since 1982.
In the period from 1982 to 2002 the percentage of women who have never partner with male condoms increased from 52 percent in 1982 to 90 per cent in 2002. Interest, whose partner used the withdrawal has increased from 25-56 percent between 1982 and 2002 (Fig. 1). On the other hand, the percentage of those who used a sponge ™ Today intrautrine device (IUD), diaphragm, rhythm, time, and foam spermicide decreased between 1995 and 2002.
Women’s non-Hispanic black or African-American women and Hispanic or Latino were slightly less likely to have used oral contraceptive pills than non-Hispanic white women, but these groups are more likely than white women used the injectable contraceptive called Depo-three months Proveray (Fig. 2) .
Percentage of women who used a contraceptive method at their pre-marital sex initially increased by 43 per cent in 1970 to 79 per cent in 1999-2002 (Fig. 3). Most of this increase was due to an increase in condom use in sex before marriage, firstly, 22 per cent in 1970 to 67 per cent in 1999-2002, while use of pills has also increased.
About 62 per cent 61. 6 million women aged 15-44 years-5-8 used contraception in 2002. Most of them do not use contraceptives currently pregnant, trying to get pregnant, sterile medical purposes (not contraceptives) unable to conceive, or had sex recently (or ever) (Figure 4).
Percentage of all women 15-44 who had sex and not using contraception increased from 5. 4 per cent in 1995-7. 4 percent in 2002. This represents a clear increase in 1. 43 million women between 1995 and 2002, and may increase the rate of unwanted pregnancies, especially among women aged 20 years and older, and black women.
Smoking Hispanic black and Hispanic women were more likely to use a female sterilization as a method of contraception than non-Hispanic white women, but white women were more likely to rely on male sterilization (Fig. 5). But given the sterilization of men and women, about the same percentage from all three groups in figure 5 using sterilization: 23-24 percent in each group.
Some of the tables in this report show data on contraception among 38 million women aged 15-44 who use contraception (contraceptors””) in 2002. These data indicate that female sterilization is the method of choice among leading 35-44. At the age of 20-24, 4 per cent contraceptors use female sterilization, compared with 50 per cent to 40-44 years (Fig. 6).
Percentage contraceptors pill use in 2002 ranged from 53 percent in contraceptors 15-19 to 11 percent among 40-44 years contraceptors (Fig. 7).
Percentage contraceptors 22-44 years who have chosen female sterilization as a method of birth control differs significantly by education. Female sterilization accounts for 55 percent of users who do not have a secondary school in 2002 against only 13 percent contraceptors with a university degree in four years (Fig. 8).
Although contraceptors with lower education levels tend to rely on female sterilization, contraceptors more educated, usually rely on pills: only 11 percent contraceptors without a certificate of secondary education used the pill in 2002, compared with 42 percent contraceptors 4 years of higher education (Fig. 9).
The report also shows the extent of condom use with other methods of birth control. About 10 percent of married women who ever had a partner, using condoms as a contraceptive method most effective in 2002, and another 7 percent used a condom with a more efficient, as pills or Depo-Provera, so that a total of 17 per cent used condoms (Fig. 10). Among married women, however, this kind of association is much less (Fig. 10).
Very few women are dependent on their partners to use the withdrawal as the most effective method of contraception (only 3 per cent). However, it appears that this conclusion is used as a backup method for some random couples and unmarried partners, and some women never married (Figure 11).
About 42 percent of women aged 15-44 years received one or more families related to the planning of health services health care worker during the 12 months preceding the 2002 survey. Models using these services by age coincides closely with the plan of oral contraceptives by age: 63 percent of women aged 20-24 years and 20 percent of women 40-44 use such services in the year preceding the survey (Fig. 12).
The proportion of women aged 15-44 years who used family planning services during the past 12 months increased from 33 percent in 1995 to 42 percent in 2002. About 29 percent of women aged 15-19 years received family planning services in 1995, compared with 40 percent in 2002. The increase occurred also in other age groups.
More than 34 million 61. 6 million women aged 15-44 years (56 percent) visited private doctors in family planning and health services in 2002, and almost 13. 5000000 (22 percent) used public hospitals. Important part of the network of public clinics, W. C. Department of Public Health and Human Services (DHHS) Title X programs on planning the family. The program is estimated at 4. 2 million women in the 12 months preceding the survey in 1995, and about 5. 4000000 12 months preceding the 2002 survey.
