In an attempt to curb this redundant healthcare expenditure, governments of various countries, including developed and developing nations such as the U.S., Sweden, Norway, and India, encourage women to opt for more effective modern contraceptive methods. Governments of various countries and NGOs such as Population Services International (PSI), Marie Stopes International, and Futures Group, along with prominent market players organize family planning programs and contraception awareness programs to expand the knowledge about contraceptives and their advantages in preventing pregnancy.
