Only 3-4% of women in Bulgaria below the age of 20 use contraceptives, in contrast to 60% of their peers in the Netherlands, 42% in Germany and 30% in Austria and the UK, according to the Bulgarian Association of Obstetrics and Gynaecologists. The Association is also of the opinion that 39 in every 1,000 women in this age group will have an abortion before the age of 20. A further 40 in every 1,000 will refrain from terminating an unwanted pregnancy.
A national information campaign on the benefits of contraception was launched in 55 Bulgarian schools on 18 February.
