[Contraception in immigrant women].
The contraceptive behaviour of immigrants is not enough reliable if the great number of abortions is considered. Possible explanations for this fact are immigration itself but also the cultural background. Within the practical guidelines for transcultural contraceptive counselling, the most important points are a low access limit, the use of translators and mediators familiar with the subject, enough time and a high motivation.
