User dependent Hormonal methods 0.7* [0.6–1.0] 0.9 [0.6–1.2] 1.2 [0.9–1.5]
Long acting reversible methods 0.9 [0.6–1.1] 1.2 [0.9–1.7] 1.4* [1.1–1.8]
Sterilization 1.4 [0.8–2.5] 3.9* [2.2–6.9] 2.8* [1.9–4.1]

women were not at risk of an unintended pregnancy if they were sterile or their partner was sterile; if they were pregnant or trying to conceive, if they had just given birth or were breastfeeding or if they had no heterosexual activity in the last 12 months

Results are adjusted for age, parity, cohabitation status, level of education, professional situation, abortion history, smoking status, and obesity
