This 20-page Population Reports issue highlights new research findings about contraceptives:
-Providers can now give clients the DMPA injection even if they are four weeks late without otherwise ruling out pregnancy.
-Contrary to popular belief, a recent systematic review by the Cochrane Collaboration has shown that giving emergency contraceptive pills in advance does not result in increased sexual risk-taking.
-Family Health International has developed a new checklist to help providers identify women who are at low risk for current sexually transmitted infections (STIs). These women could be medically eligible for IUD insertion.
