title: [Comparison of contraceptive conduct of minors and of women of various ages (author's transl)].
abstract: In 1975, a random sample (n = 639) of the female population of the Greater Munich Area was taken for the research project on "side effects of oral contraceptives: development phase". The women were 12-45 years of age and were classified according to town/country and adult/adolescent. By means of a specially prepared questionnaire, the approach and behavior of the interviewees with regard to contraception and prohylaxis inter alia were recorded. 65% of all those questioned were examined gynecologically within the framework of the project. The data obtained by question and examination are at the disposal of the Institut für Medizinische Informationsverarbeitung, Statistik und Biomathematik (ISB) for evaluation of additional dialogue. The authors have compared the contraceptive behavior of minors ( = up to 17 years) with adults in a special evaluation of 350 cases aged from 12 to 30 years.
