Combined Oral Contraceptives (COCs) Effectiveness Spermicides Vasectomy Tubal Ligation LNG-IUD Copper-IUD LAM (6 months) Progestin-only Injectables COCs Progestin-only Pills Male Condoms Standard Days Method Female Condoms Implants First-Year Pregnancy Rate per 100 Women Suggested script: Combined oral contraceptives are very effective when taken correctly and consistently. This chart compares the pregnancy rates for COCs with the rates for other contraceptive methods. The blue diamonds show pregnancy rates for correct and consistent use, reflecting how often a contraceptive fails when it is used both correctly and consistently. The red circles show pregnancy rates for common use, reflecting how often a contraceptive fails in real-life situations, when it may not always be used correctly and consistently. In the case of COCs, there is a substantial difference between pregnancy rates for correct and consistent use and common use. As the chart shows, the pregnancy rate is less than 1 percent for correct and consistent COC use, but about 9 percent as COCs are commonly used. Correct and consistent use for users of COCs means taking one pill every day, starting a new pack of pills on time, and following instructions for missed pills.

Protective Effect of COC Use on Ovarian and Endometrial Cancer Lifetime risk of acquiring ovarian or endometrial cancer after 8+ years of COC use Number per 100 women 100 1.7 0.6 0.7 0.2 3.1 0.4 1.2 0.3 0.1 2 4 6 8 10 United States Costa Rica China Non COC users COC users Ovarian Cancer Endometrial Cancer Reduces risk by more than 50% Protection develops after 12 months of use and is present for at least 15 years Suggested script: One area of confusion is the relationship between COCs and cancer. As shown in this chart, COCs protect women against ovarian and endometrial cancer. Many studies have demonstrated that users have less than half the risk of developing these cancers compared to non-users. The protective effect develops after 12 months of COC use and lasts at least 15 years after a woman discontinues taking the pills. This chart demonstrates the protective effect using modeled data from selected countries. It is estimated that, in the United States, eight or more years of COC use reduces the lifetime risk of acquiring ovarian cancer from 1.7 per 100 women to 0.7. In both Costa Rica and China, COC use would cause the lifetime risk of ovarian cancer to drop from 0.6 to 0.2 per 100 women. The lifetime risk of endometrial cancer among women using COCs drops from 3.1 to 1.2 per 100 in the United States, from 0.7 to 0.3 per 100 women in Costa Rica, and from 0.4 to 0.1 per 100 in China.

Understanding Relative Risk Definition Probability of developing condition X in exposed population Relative Risk = Probability of developing condition X in unexposed population Suggested script: To measure relative risk, researchers divide the frequency or probability of a certain event—a complication or disease—in the population exposed to treatment (or, in this case, in the population that uses COCs), by the frequency or probability of this event in the population that is not using the method.1 Reference: 1. Hatcher RA, Trussell J, Nelson AL, et al. Contraceptive Technology. Nineteenth Revised Edition. New York: Ardent Media, Inc., 2007.

Understanding Relative Risk Risk Versus Protection Relative Risk Log Scale 0.1 1 10 0.5 5 Increased Risk Exposure increases risk of disease No Effect No association Suggested script: Relative risk data are displayed on a logarithmic scale. In a simple comparison between an exposed group and a non-exposed group: A relative risk of 1 means there is no difference in risk between the two groups. For example, when the exposed group has 10 cases of condition X and the unexposed group also has 10 cases of condition X, 10 divided by 10 equals 1. A relative risk of 1 indicates there is no association between exposure and condition X. If for example, the exposed group has 20 cases of condition X and the unexposed group has only 10 cases of condition X, 20 divided by 10 equals 2. A relative risk of 2 indicates that the exposed group is twice as likely to develop condition X as the unexposed group. Any relative risk greater than 1 means that exposure increases the likelihood of developing condition X. Another situation occurs when the exposed group has 10 cases of condition X and the unexposed group has 20 cases of condition X: 10 divided by 20 equals 0.5. A relative risk of 0.5 indicates that the exposed group is half as likely to develop condition X as the unexposed group. Any relative risk less than 1 means that exposure provides protection from developing condition X. In the Training Resource Package, relative risk data are presented using the graphic arrow shown in this slide to make the information easier to understand.1 Reference: 1.

Understanding Relative Risk Confidence Interval Relative Risk Log Scale 0.1 1 10 0.5 5 Increased Risk No Effect Protective Effect B A C D Suggested script: The confidence interval is another concept included in studies that present relative risk data. The confidence interval is reported as a range of values above and below each reported measure of relative risk. For example, in point A above, the relative risk is 4 and the confidence interval is 1.8 to 4.2. Knowing the confidence interval is important, because the relative risk calculated as part of a study is applicable to the study population only. It does not necessarily accurately reflect the experiences of all people in similar circumstances. To compensate, when researchers calculate the relative risk for subjects in their study, they also calculate a range that indicates the relative risk scores that other people in similar circumstances are likely to have. As shown in point A in the chart, when the entire confidence interval—both the upper and lower numbers in the range—is above one, it indicates that the increased risk found in the study is statistically significant. Similarly, as shown in point D in the chart, when the entire confidence interval is below one, it indicates that the protective effect found in the study is statistically significant. However, when the confidence interval range falls both above and below one, as shown in points B and C, the relative risk cannot be considered statistically significant because it suggests that some people may have an increased risk while others may experience a protective effect.1 Reference: 1. Hatcher RA, Trussell J, Nelson AL, et al. Contraceptive Technology. Nineteenth Revised Edition. New York: Ardent Media, Inc., 2007. Statistical interpretation: A – Significant risk B – Nonsignificant risk C – Nonsignificant protection D – Significant protection

Relative Risk for Breast Cancer among COC users and Non-users Relative Risk Log Scale 0.1 1 10 Increased Risk No Effect Protective Effect 1.0 1.24 [1.15–1.33] 1.16 [1.08–1.23] 1.07 [1.02–1.13] 1.01 [0.96–1.05] Suggested script: This chart depicts the findings of the reanalyzed data from 54 independent studies conducted in 25 countries. It shows the relationship of the relative risks for breast cancer among non-users, current users, and past COC users. Non-users have a relative risk of 1.0 because there is no effect on breast cancer due to COC use. Relative risk values with confidence intervals above 1.0 indicate an increased risk, while values below 1.0 indicate a decrease in risk or a protective effect. Notice that the increased risk, while still small, is highest in current users and gradually decreases with time after discontinuation, reaching 1.01 in women who discontinued COCs 10 or more years ago. While the relative risk value for women 10 years after stopping is 1.01, the confidence interval includes 1.0, which means that this small relative risk is not statistically significant. The study also found that this pattern of risk among COC users remains the same even if women have additional risks of breast cancer, such as women from specific ethnic groups, with certain reproductive histories, or with a family history of breast cancer. 1,2,3 Note to facilitator: If the participants have not yet been introduced to the concept of relative risk or need a refresher on how to interpret relative risk data, you may want to review information from the relative risk presentation, Presentation_RelativeRisk_Clin prior to showing this slide.

COC Users and Risk of Blood Clots Estimates of venous thromboembolism per 100,000 woman-years Incidence Relative Risk Young women in the general population 4–5 1 Low-dose COCs 12–20 3–4 High-dose COCs 24–50 6–10 Pregnant women 48–60 12 Suggested script: This chart compares the risk of blood clots among women using modern, low-dose COCs, women using older, high-dose formulations, and pregnant women. Notice that the baseline incidence of blood clots in young women who are not using COCs is four to five cases per 100,000 over a period of one year. For women taking high-dose COCs (with 50 µg or more of estrogen) the incidence of blood clots is 24 to 50 cases per 100,000 women. The incidence drops to 12 to 20 cases among women who take low-dose COCs (with less than 50 µg estrogen). Note that the risk of blood clots among women taking either high- or low-dose COCs is still significantly less than that of pregnant women. Pregnancy presents a higher risk of blood clots than do COCs. Source: WHO, 1998; Speroff, 2005.

COC Users and Risk of Heart Attack Estimated number of heart attacks per million woman-years Characteristic Age 20-24 Age 30-34 Age 40-44 Healthy non-COC user 0.14 1.7 21.3 Healthy COC user 0.34 4.2 53.2 COC user who smokes 1.6 20.4 255 COC user with  BP 2.0 25.5 319 Suggested script: This chart compares the estimated number of heart attacks among healthy women who do not use COCs, healthy women who use COCs, and COC users with additional risk factors for heart disease. Notice that among non-smoking, healthy women ages 40–44, the estimated number of heart attacks for non-COC users is 21 and for COC users is 53 per one million woman-years. However, the number of estimated heart attacks among COC users who smoke or have high blood pressure increases dramatically to 255 and 319, respectively.1 This is why it is important to screen clients for existing risk factors before they initiate COC use. Screening for existing risk factors is important. Source: Farley, 1998.
