The survey of  family growth indicates that only around 65% of reproductive age women are using contraception. The rest, who are sexually active and do not wish to have children are not being adequately protected against unintended pregnancy. 

The most direct result of the nonuse as well as the misuse of contraception is the high unintended pregnancy rate in this country.  

The use of contraception is healthier for women than use of no contraception at all, helping them to preserve their fertility and safeguard their health.  Most birth control  methods offer both protection from pregnancy and non contraceptive benefits.

Most of American women approximately 3/4 of their reproductive stage of life is spent trying to avoid pregnancy.
