Condom reaches pill's popularity
(BBC 20/10/2009)
The condom has now caught up with the pill as women's preferred method of contraception, latest figures suggest. A quarter of the 1,093 women under 50 surveyed opted for condoms, which is identical to the proportion who plumped for the oral contraceptive pill. Experts said the Office for National Statistics figures were good news since condoms prevent sexually transmitted infections as well as pregnancy. Almost half of the condom users cited STIs as their motive for using them.
