2015, ContraceptionCitation Excerpt :Pregnancy rates in the 27 studies of injectable contraceptives were low. Among 10 studies of DMPA for which the pregnancy rate was reported or could be calculated, rates ranged from 0.1 to 1.7 per 100 woman–years [83,87,89,94,96–98,103–106]. Among studies of NET-EN, rates ranged from 0.3 to 6.6 per 100 woman–years [79,81,83,85,88,90,91,93,96,101–103].
Progestin-only contraception: Injectables and implants
2014, Best Practice and Research: Clinical Obstetrics and GynaecologyCitation Excerpt :Most women will experience irregular bleeding patterns in the first year of progestin-only contraceptive use, although irregularity reduces over time. [3,38,39] For DMPA-IM and DMPA-SC users, the proportion of women experiencing amenorrhoea increases over time (to 40–50% after 1 year and 80% after 5 years of DMPA use) [2,40–42]; these rates may be lower with NET-EN [12]. Amenorrhoea among LNG implant users is lower than among injectable users, and remains relatively constant over time (about 11%) [40].
