The article discusses the use of contraception by abortion patients and postpartum urban women in Mexico City, Mexico. In a retrospective cohort study, a larger number of women who underwent abortion practiced contraception methods more than postpartum women. Based on the results, it is recommended that women should be offered various contraceptive methods to avoid unintended pregnancy and short interpregnancy intervals.
