Women are forgetting to use their contraceptives because of their chaotic lifestyle, it is claimed today.

Research from pharmaceutical firm Bayer Schering Pharma found 30 per cent of women saying their weekly routine was chaotic and changeable.

This, it is suggested, may be linked to the 84 per cent of women who forget to take daily contraception at some point.

The implications for unplanned pregnancies are obvious, despite eight per cent saying they feel anxious about knowing that they take risks with their contraception or that they don't have adequate protection.

"A chaotic routine has a big impact on a woman's life but by no means should it leave her feeling anxious and at risk of an unplanned pregnancy," Sarah Jarvis commented.

"Routine is different now and contraception has evolved to be more in line with women's lifestyles and needs."

Long-term contraceptive devices which work for up to ten years are worth considering, the firm argues. Those interested should contact their GP or health professional.
