Long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) are recommended as first-line contraceptive choices to reduce unintended pregnancy. However, use of LARCs among nulliparous women has been low. This study aims to examine changes in the prevalence of current LARC use among sexually experienced U.S. nulliparous women across the time period of 2006\u20132010, 2011\u20132013, and 2013\u20132015, and examine correlates of use.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Sexually experienced nulliparous women (15\u201344 years) from the 2006\u20132010, 2011\u20132013, and 2013\u20132015 rounds of the National Survey of Family Growth (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">N<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20097463) were examined.
