Abstract： The unintended pregnancy resulting in abortion is a worldwide problem,with multiple adverse effects on women. There was good evidence that the use of long-acting reversible contraception (LARC), including intra-uterine device,subdermal implant and injectable contraceptive,was associated with the lowered risk of unintended pregnancy. LARC is efficient,long-acting,fertility-reversible,safe and easy to use. Its effect is not dependent on the user′s compliance. Therefore,LARC methods are recommended to fertile women in the world.
