Summary

Preliminary data from our work with teen mothers suggest that many women would benefit from contraception but do not actually make visits nor initiate conversations regarding contraception unless the subject is raised by the clinician. Those coming for primary care visits discuss their conditions and care with family and friends, spreading health care information. A substantial proportion of citizens obtain their health information from friends, family, internet, social media and other non-clinicians. Thus, educating women, even when not coming expressly for contraceptive services, increases more accurate health information throughout their communities and actually identifies fertility needs, ultimately increasing use of contraception.
