English term or phrase: are poorly addressed
Based on 2007 data on contraceptive prevalence26 and the typical failure rates of contraception, it has been estimated that approximately 33 million women each year will experience an unintended pregnancy while using a contraceptive method.30 In addition, the contraceptive needs of at least 110 million married women with unmet need for family planning and over 400 million unmarried women of reproductive age, including adolescents, are poorly addressed. However, contraception alone cannot and will not reduce women's need for abortion, which is as much a part of women's life experience as their ability to become pregnant. At a minimum, safe abortion services should be accessible in every country to the full extent of the law.

agree  coolbrowne: Sim apenas suficientemente. Já "devidamente" (adequadamente) seria ir além do que o texto diz.

disagree  coolbrowne: O correto é mal (adbérbio) em bvez de mau (adjetivo) e, de qualquer forma, "mal atendido" não reflete o caráter de insuficiência de "poorly". E o contexto é mais que suficiente (dos melhores aqui neste forum)
