A call for developing advanced techniques to meet the contraceptive needs of about of 215 million or 26 % of reproductive-age women across the developing world is being heard in the corners of the world. As per reports, one in four sub-Saharan African women is grappling to get hold of new contraceptives methods, replacing the existing methods.

Moreover, a report by the New York-based Guttmacher Institute has revealed that 148 million women in three regions, including Sub-Saharan Africa, south central Asia and Southeast Asia, accounting for 69% in the developing world, are in dire need to deal with their persistent concern of unintended pregnancies.

With 21 million suffering abortions annually, the study claimed, "Seven in 10 women with unmet need in the three regions cite reasons for nonuse that could be rectified with appropriate methods”.

The report is of the view that newly devised techniques, safer to use, must be introduced to address the grave concern keeping infrequent sex and incognizance of partner in mind.

Acknowledging the desperate call for new methods, co-author Jacqueline Darroch has claimed that besides spiraling access to women for counseling, more steps in the name of contraceptive methods should be introduced to meet the unmet needs of women.
