000002194 520__ $$aPatient surveys indicate that women are interested in contraceptive methods that reduce menstruation frequency, yet most are unaware that such options exist. Extended-use oral contraceptives can effectively prevent pregnancy and alleviate menstrual discomfort. It's unclear if healthcare providers are aware of this interest. Research is needed to identify barriers to prescribing, including knowledge gaps about risks and benefits or negative attitudes toward medically-induced amenorrhea. This investigation aims to explore how the prescribing habits of Oregon obstetrics and gynecology and family medicine physicians regarding extended-use oral contraceptives are influenced by geographic location, specialty, and their knowledge and attitudes toward these methods.
