ObjectiveTo determine the change in the number of family planning technical services in Pudong New Area of Shanghai from 2011 through 2018， and provide scientific evidence for improving reproductive health care for women of childbearing age.
MethodsTrend analysis was performed according to the data of family planning technical service and obstetric service records by all medical and health care facilities in Pudong New Area from 2011 through 2018.
ResultsTop four family planning operations were vacuum aspiration， intrauterine device （IUD） removal， IUD insertion and medical abortion. The average annual number of family planning operations was 77 320， which declined over years with an average reduction rate of 3.32%. The average reduction rate of contraceptive and induced abortion was 5.87% and 1.6%， respectively. The reduction rate of IUD insertion was higher than that of IUD removal. Vacuum aspiration was the leading method of induced abortion， accounting for 77.9%， in which 79.27% was performed with intravenous anesthesia. Among the women receiving induced abortion， majority of them were married and non-local residents. The ratio of induced abortion to the live birth decreased over years from 2011 through 2018.
ConclusionNumber of family planning technical services in Pudong New Area of Shanghai decreases from 2011 through 2018. Vacuum aspiration and IUD removal are the main operations in family planning surgery. With the decrease of long-term medically controlled contraceptive and birth control measures， it is necessary to strengthen the correct and effective use of self-controlled contraceptive measures for women of childbearing age， especially for those non-local married women， so as to reduce unwanted pregnancies and repeated induced abortions.
