Check this out:
http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2014/09/14/sunday-review/... Perfect use of male condom: 18% chance of conception after 10 years. Typical usage: 86% chance of conception after 10 years. Even "the pill": 3% chance at conception after 10 years with perfect use. 61% chance of conception with typical usage. Everyone thinks they use contraception correctly. It may be true for anyone reading this forum, but if you're looking at policy, you have to account for typical usage. Education campaigns can move "typical" closer to "perfect" usage, but IUDs and sterilization are pretty much the only types of birth control that offer more than 50% chance of not conceiving in 10 years. |
