This volume contains papers presented at the Conference on the
Demographic and Programmatic Consequences of Contraceptive In
novations, which was sponsored by the Committee on Population and
held at the National Academy of Sciences, October 6-7, 1988. The
papers consider how new contraceptive methods currently being
developed and changes in the use of already available
contraceptives could affect contraceptive practice, levels and
patterns of abortion use, and the health of women. In addition,
several of the papers re view the probable consequences of
introducing new technology into family planning programs in
developing countries. The Committee on Population sponsored this
conference in order to stimulate think ing and to provide a forum
for scientists, family planning program managers, and donor agency
personnel to exchange information and ideas about these important
issues. The committee is publishing these papers to expand the
discussion of consequences of contracep tive innovations and to
give scientists, policy makers, and members of the public who could
not attend the conference an opportunity to learn about new
developments in fertility control and their likely consequences for
individuals and the societies in which they live. NEED FOR NEW
METHODS While a strong case can be made that the pill and the
intrauterine device (IUD) have contributed to declines in the level
of unintended pregnancies around the world, it is also clear that
for many couples existing methods present problems.
