[Tubal ligation and vasectomies in Quebec.  Recent trends].
The author analyzes recent trends in the number of tubal ligations and vasectomies performed in Quebec, Canada, using data for cohorts born since 1941.  She finds that since the early 1980s, there has been "a decrease in the proportion of sterilized females and an increase in the proportion of sterilized males.... On the whole, the number of sterilized couples in their thirties has slightly decreased.... The most recent data seem to indicate that this evolution has come to a halt." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND SPA)
