“…Contraceptive use in France was almost universal among non-migrant French women in the period of our study (Bajos et al 2012;Vigoureux and Le Guen 2018). The pill has been the most widely used method in the French contraceptive system for the past 40 years (Roux 2021), which significantly differs from Turkey where usage of the pill is low. Heterosexual couples in France often rely upon condoms at early stages of sexual activity, transition to the pill when sexual life becomes more stable, and eventually adopt IUDs once desired family size has been achieved (Bajos et al 2012(Bajos et al , 2014Le Guen et al 2017).…”

Do migrants change their contraceptive usage in destination contexts characterized by widely available reproductive healthcare? To explore this question, we adopt a multi-sited analysis where we standardize and integrate data on women’s contraceptive use from two different sources— Trajectoires et Origines (TeO) survey collected in France (the receiving country)—and the Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) collected in Turkey (the sending country). Descriptive analyses indicate that contraceptive use of migrant women from Turkey in France is more comparable to that of non-migrant women in France compared to non-migrant women in Turkey. To address migrant selectivity on observed characteristics in multivariate analyses, non-migrant groups in France and Turkey are re-weighted with entropy balancing to resemble migrants on observed characteristics. Multivariate results indicate that there are sizable differences in contraceptive usage between Turkish migrants and non-migrant Turkish women, which undermines the hypothesis of selection on observables. Yet, there are no significant differences between migrants and non-migrant French women in contraceptive methods, with the exception of hormonal short acting methods, thus supporting a partial-adaptation perspective. We point to health insurance and religiosity as potential pathways that help explain these findings.

Do migrants adopt the contraceptive norms dominant in their destination context? To explore this question, the authors adopt a multisited analysis in which they standardize and integrate data on women’s contraceptive use from two different sources: the Trajectoires et Origines survey collected in France (the receiving country) and the Demographic and Health Survey collected in Turkey (the sending country). Descriptive analyses indicate that contraceptive use of migrant women from Turkey in France is more comparable with that of nonmigrant women in France compared with nonmigrant women in Turkey. To address migrant selectivity on observed characteristics in multivariate analyses, nonmigrant groups in France and Turkey are reweighted with entropy balancing to resemble migrants on observed characteristics. Multivariate results indicate that there are sizable differences in contraceptive use between Turkish migrants and nonmigrant Turkish women, which undermines the hypothesis of selection on observables. Yet there are no significant differences between migrants and nonmigrant French women in contraceptive methods, thus supporting an adaptation perspective. Supplementary analyses highlight several pathways that could help explain these findings.

Évolution des usages contraceptifs

Il est difficile de dire avec précision depuis quand les êtres humains ont souhaité contrôler leur fécondité, tant cette pratique paraît ancienne. Toutefois, on observe au fil du temps deux évolutions majeures. Au cours des xviiie et xixe siècles en Europe, la « première révolution contraceptive » se caractérise par l’adoption du « retrait » au sein des couples mariés. Quant à la « seconde révolution contraceptive », elle n’intervient qu’à partir de la seconde moitié du xxe siècle, avec la diffusion progressive de la pilule et du dispositif intra-utérin (DIU) au sein des différents groupes sociaux. Depuis lors, les pratiques contraceptives sont largement médicalisées et le contrôle de la fécondité est devenue une responsabilité exclusivement féminine.
