[edit] "pregnancy rate" rather than "failure rate"

Note discussion at Talk:Birth control#"pregnancy rate" rather than "failure rate" re replacing occurrences of "failure rate" with "pregnancy rate". I would also like to see the same change on this page. Please make any comments there. --Coppertwig 04:02, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Globalize request

This article was recently tagged as U.S.-centric. I'm not sure why - it discusses several spermicides not available in the U.S. - neem is only available in India, menfegol in Europe, BZK in Canada and France. I believe the list is comprehensive. The description of octoxynyl-9 only mentions the U.S. - because it was only ever available in the U.S., and is now not available anywhere. I would like to fix any problems with this article, and would appreciate an explanation of why the tag was placed. Lyrl Talk C 02:32, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
