For further research

  • More, better data (e.g. more countries) on

unintended pregnancy and its outcomes

  • Standard definitions of terms (e.g. unintended,

unplanned, unwanted)

  • Rigorous separation of never-wanted from

mistimed pregnancies, based on uniform criteria

  • More exploration of implications of mistimed

pregnancies (e.g. proportions followed with intended pregnancies and when)

  • Robust integration into population projections
