  1. an = number of youths included in analysis of interest
  2. bSD Standard deviation, NR not reported, NM not mentioned
  3. cThis reporting refers to some young people with data who were not included in the final analysis due to missing values. The initial sample for the 12th wave was 885
  4. Condom use: use of condom alone
  5. Dual method: use of condom with one other contraceptive method
  6. Multiple methods: multiple methods of contraception, including condoms
