摘要: The authors used data from the 1970 National Fertility Survey and Centers for Disease Control surveillance of surgical sterilizations to estimate cumulative prevalences hysterectomy tubal sterilization among women reproductive age in United States between 1971 1978. In 1978, prevalence rate was more than twice as high aged 15--44 years it at least three times under 30. Although increase not marked, by 19% 40--44 had undergone hysterectomy. population risk sterilization, calculated corrected incidence rates these procedures. While doubled remained stable. largest age-specific 40--44, with six higher 1978 1971. These findings can be recompute endometrial cervical cancers, abortions, ectopic pregnancies, allowing precise analysis related trends.
