BACKGROUND: Latinas in the United States experience high rates of unintended pregnancy and low rates of contraception use, yet reasons are not completely understood. Depression is common among pregnant and nonpregnant Latinas; its influence on contraceptive motivations, intentions, and use is understudied.
OBJECTIVES: We sought to 1) describe Latinas' contraceptive motivations, intentions, and use; 2) use structural equation modeling to test associations between depression and contraceptive self-efficacy/motivations/intentions/use; and 3) determine whether associations differ by pregnancy status.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study included Latinas ages 15 to 45 recruited from an urban Federally Qualified Health Center in Baltimore, Maryland. Structured surveys were used to collect data regarding depressive symptoms measured using the PHQ-9. All other constructs were measured with previously validated questions. Constructs included contraceptive self-efficacy, positive and negative contraceptive motivations (perceived advantages and disadvantages of using contraception), contraceptive intentions to begin or continue contraception use, and contraceptive methods currently used.
RESULTS: Among pregnant Latinas, depression was associated with negative motivations (β = 0.16; p < .05), negative motivations were associated with intentions (β = -0.22; p < .01), and contraceptive self-efficacy was associated with intentions (β = 0.43; p < .001). Among nonpregnant Latinas, contraceptive self-efficacy was associated with intentions (β = 0.78; p < .001) and intentions were associated with use (β = 0.40; p < .05).
CONCLUSIONS: Among pregnant Latinas, negative motivations intervene in the association between depression and contraceptive intentions. For nonpregnant Latinas, intentions intervene in the association between self-efficacy and contraceptive use. This study underscores the importance of depression screening during pregnancy and encourages practitioners to target contraceptive motivations to improve contraceptive use.
