Survey of contraceptive services available to college students.

ABSTRACT

PIP Questionnaire were sent to 187 directors of college student health services; 71% returned usable replies. 3 sources of contraceptive services were identified local family planning agencies, the student health service, and private physicians. It was found students had easy access to information, the pill, the IUD, over-the-counter methods, diaphragms, and referral services. Sterilizations were difficult to obtain and generally not available through a student health center. Every questionnaire noted that at least some contraceptive services were available, if not through the student health service, then through the family planning agency or a physician.^ieng
