Contraceptive prevalence rate, modern methods, all women
Full Name
Percentage of all women aged 15 to 49 who are currently using, or whose sexual partner is using, at least one modern method of contraception, regardless of the modern method used

Definition
Proportion of women aged 15 to 49 who are currently using, or whose sexual partner is currently using, at least one modern method of contraception, regardless of the modern method used.
Method of Calculation
Numerator:
Number of women aged 15 to 49 years using a modern method of contraception.
Denominator:
Number of women aged 15 to 49 years, regardless of their marital status.
Calculation:
Numerator divided by the denominator, expressed as a percentage.
Modern methods of contraception include female and male sterilization, intra-uterine devices (IUD), implants, injectables, oral contraceptive pills, male and female condoms, vaginal barrier methods (including the diaphragm, cervical cap and spermicidal foam, jelly, cream and sponge), the lactational amenorrhea method (LAM), emergency contraception and other modern methods not reported separately (e.g., the contraceptive patch or vaginal ring). Traditional methods of contraception include rhythm (e.g., fertility awareness-based methods, periodic abstinence), withdrawal and other traditional methods not reported separately.
Data source specific method of calculation:
Global database:
Proportion of women who are currently using, or whose sexual partner is currently using, at least one method of contraception, regardless of the method being used. It is reported as a percentage of the women of the respective marital status and age group. A Bayesian hierarchical model was used to estimate and project contraceptive prevalence and the unmet need for family planning among women aged 15 to 49 years years. The model allows an assessment of uncertainty in the estimates based on the availability and quality of input data: they allow for greater precision in cases where more and better data is available and indicate the degree of uncertainty in situations where which the data are insufficient or are from sources more susceptible to systematic differences as captured by the biases assigned to each survey-based data point.
Estimates are based on all women aged 15 to 49 years.
DHS:
Modern methods include female sterilization (tubal ligation, laparectomy, voluntary surgical contraception for women), male sterilization (vasectomy, voluntary surgical contraception for men), the contraceptive pill (oral contraceptives), intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD), injectables (Depo-Provera), implants (Norplant), female condom, male condom (prophylactic, rubber), diaphragm, contraceptive foam and contraceptive jelly, lactational amenorrhea method (LAM), standard days method (SDM), country-specific modern methods and respondent-mentioned other modern contraceptive methods (including cervical cap, contraceptive sponge, and others), but does NOT include abortions and menstrual regulation.
