Contraceptive failure is the most common cause of unplanned pregnancy in India. An estimated 40% of pregnancies in India are unintended. You are not alone and you have options.

Common Contraceptive Failures in India

Condom failure (breakage or incorrect use) โ€” 2 to 15% failure rate. Oral contraceptive pill failure (missed doses) โ€” 0.3 to 9% failure rate. Emergency contraceptive pill (morning after pill) failure โ€” 1 to 2% failure rate. IUCD (copper T) failure โ€” 0.1 to 0.8% failure rate. Contraceptive injection failure โ€” very rare but possible. Natural methods (rhythm method, withdrawal) โ€” 4 to 25% failure rate.

What to Do If Your Contraception Failed

First, confirm the pregnancy with a home pregnancy test or blood test. If positive, do an ultrasound to confirm gestational age and rule out ectopic pregnancy. Consult a registered gynaecologist as soon as possible โ€” earlier termination is safer and less expensive.
