Summary of "Intrauterine Devices for Adolescents: a Systematic Review," Deans/Grimes, Contraception, June 2009.
Adolescent pregnancy persists as a "stubborn" public health problem in the U.S., with teenagers accounting for nearly 750,000 pregnancies annually, about 82% of which are unintended. Although adolescents have higher continuation rates with longer-acting contraceptive methods, the majority of them use oral contraceptives and condoms. Adolescents' compliance with shorter-acting methods is mediocre, and many could benefit from methods that are simpler to use and longer-lasting, according to the researchers.
