Figures
Method-Specific Probabilities of Experiencing a Pregnancy Within a Year of Continuous Use of Contraception Among US Women at Risk for Unintended Pregnancy Note. Contraceptive failure rates for condoms, birth control pills, and long-acting methods are taken from Trussell. The latter reflects a weighted average of the failure rates for intrauterine devices (IUDs) and subdermal implants. The failure rate for the “no method” category is the estimated probability of experiencing a pregnancy within a year of abandoning contraception among women at risk for unintended pregnancy.
