The North America Contraceptives Market is segmented into the US, Canada, and Mexico. The US held the largest share of the North American contraceptives market in 2020.

Also, rising awareness for sexually transmitted diseases is likely to favor market growth. In North America, the US holds a significant share in the contraceptives market. The growth of the market in the country is primarily driven by increasing awareness for birth control. As per the 2015–2017 National Survey of Family Growth data, in 2015–2017, around 64.9% (46.9 million) of the 72.2 million women aged between 15–49 years in the US were using contraception.

A recent survey by the World Health Organization found that family planning and contraception are among the most frequently disrupted health services. 7 in 10 countries around the world are experiencing disruptions along with United States, Canada and Mexico. However, the COVID-19 pandemic does not disrupt the supply of and demand generation for condoms. Sexual relations may be transformed in the new context of the pandemic, but they have not stopped. While access to male and female condoms has been critical in the global response to reduce HIV, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and unintended pregnancies over the past three decades, these gains can be lost if condoms are not included in the essential commodities that are freely available to populations during the lockdown of countries. This brief for country condom program managers and experts provides a summary of relevant actions to sustain supplies of male condoms, female condoms, and lubricants and to adjust approaches for condom promotion during the time of COVID-19. However, in the long run, market is expected to boost the demand, as IUDs centers now opening for patients for reproductive health other than COVID -19.
