Overview

The CHOICE study undertaken in all 11 European countries has shown that, following provision of the proper instruction on all the ways of using combined hormonal contraception, an increasing preference for non-oral application systems has been observed. In all the countries included in the CHOICE study, the number of women, who would choose the vaginal ring, has significantly increased. Except for the Czech and Slovak republics the use of contraceptive patches has also increased. The increase in non-oral use is related to a higher age of patients, existence of long lasting relationship, higher education and anamnesis of unintended pregnancy. The study has proven a significant effect of receiving a proper instruction and consultation with a physician on the patient’s choice of contraception.

Key words:
combined oral contraceptive – COC – CHOICE Study – vaginal ring – contraceptive pill – contraceptive plaster
