Abstract: The types of primary contraceptive method chosen by women seeking services in California family planning clinics are reviewed for the years 1976-1979. Of most significance was the decline in the use of oral contraceptives (OC) and the concurrent rise in nonprescription methods at all ages. A striking difference in OC use between the earlier and latter time periods was noted for women age 40 and older.
