Distribution of Time of Unprotected Intercourse (TUI) in Female Offspring of the Fisheater Family Health Study, 2000–2001. The sample included 151 daughters who provided information on 308 time periods of unprotected intercourse (TUI). The ever-pregnant women had 301 time periods of intercourse resulting in pregnancy, but 54 pregnancies occurred in spite of using birth control (TTP cannot be calculated). Of the 247 TUIs in the ever-pregnant group, 234 ended in pregnancy and 13 did not result in a conception (PUNP). Complete reproductive information was available for 232; however, in two TUIs the time to pregnancy was missing. Of the former, one resulted in a current pregnancy, 168 in a life birth, seven in multiple births, 36 in miscarriages, five in atopic pregnancies and 14 in abortions. One women did not provide information on the pregnancy. The 41 women who were never pregnant contributed seven PUNPs. In total, we had data for 252 TUIs (232 TTPs + 13 PUNPs + 7 PUNPs). TUI: Time of unprotected intercourse, TTP: Time to pregnancy, PUNP: Periods of unprotected intercourse not or not yet leading to pregnancy
