Market Dynamics

Use of contraceptives is low in emerging economies especially in Africa, according to report ‘Trends in Contraceptive Use Worldwide 2015’, of the United Nations in 2015. Moreover, WHO estimates that around 225 million women in as of 2015, emerging economies who would like to delay their pregnancy are not using any contraception method. The impact of this is realized through the number of abortions carried out each year, with around 21.6 million unsafe abortions reported annually. Around 85% of these are reported in emerging economies in Africa and Asia, as per estimates of WHO (2016). Increasing awareness among the population through government initiatives and increasing accessibility to various contraceptive devices and drugs are expected to propel growth of contraceptive drugs and devices market in the near future.

The demand for advanced contraceptive options such as IUD, injectables, combined oral pills and diaphragms is observed to be high globally. This is owing to growing awareness among the populace, availability of reimbursement and growing demand for long term contraceptive methods.

Factors impacting the contraceptive drugs and devices market in different regions:

• Implementation of the stringent two-child policy in China since 2016, is a major factor driving demand for contraceptives in the country
• Societal stigma impacting the demand for contraceptives negatively in Asia and Africa
• Government programs encouraging the use of selected contraceptives affecting the market for other products (Indian government provides incentives for sterilization and distributes free condoms, while the U.S. Affordable Care Act emphasizes on complete insurance coverage for long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARC)

Favorable reimbursement scenario in the U.S. to propel uptake of contraceptives

The affordability and accessibility of products to the U.S. citizens will be affected due to the new policies of President Trump on the Affordable Care Act. However, insurance coverage of health and reproductive products were allowed to be continued without any co-pays, co-insurance or deductibles by the State. Furthermore, this new policy would also cover all medically essential abortion services for the U.S. population. This is a much anticipated relief for the general population in the U.S., as around 45% of all pregnancies reported are unintended (CDC, 2009-2013 study data).
