From the year 2013 to 2023, hospital discharges for contraceptive management in Sweden displayed significant fluctuations. The peak was observed in 2014 with a 50% year-on-year increase. This was followed by a sharp decline of 33.33% in 2015, stabilizing momentarily before decreasing more drastically by 2017. By 2023, the hospital discharges were recorded at 300 units per hundred unit persons, maintaining the same level as 2022. Over the last five years (2018-2023), the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) was -9.71%, indicating a downward trend. The forecasted CAGR for the next five years is -7.79% with a growth rate of -33.33% by 2028.
For future trends to watch, it would be prudent to monitor policy changes aimed at improving outpatient contraceptive care, advancements in contraceptive technologies, and public health campaigns that may influence hospital discharge rates. These factors could potentially alter the existing downward trend and stabilize or increase discharges.
