摘要
Unintended pregnancy is a serious problem in the United States. Counseling a patient about conception and contraception involves more than simply imparting information and answering questions. Clinicians should actively detect and correct any myths and misapprehensions on the patient's part. These myths are quite common and can interfere with treatment if not attended to. This article summarizes common myths about pregnancy and contraception and reviews the key facts about both.
