Abstract

The World Health Organization (WHO) and U.S. agency and academic partners have established a state‐of‐the‐science system for staying abreast of best contraception evidence. The system is used to update WHO guidance about who can use specific contraceptive methods safely ( 3 World Health Organization Medical eligibility criteria for contraceptive use. 3rd ed. WHO, Geneva, Switzerland2004http://www.who.int/reproductive-health/publications/mec/ Google Scholar ) and how to safely and effectively use contraceptive methods deemed appropriate ( 4 World Health Organization Selected practice recommendations for contraceptive use. 2nd ed. WHO, Geneva, Switzerland2004http://www.who.int/reproductive-health/publications/spr/ Google Scholar ). The WHO and many countries rely on this guidance for policies and programming.
