Abstract Background The sexual and reproductive health of young people is a global priority. Access to sexual and reproductive health information and services will determine, the burden of adolescent pregnancies and unwanted pregnancies. Teenage pregnancy that has profound effects on the health and wellbeing of young women across their life course is a burning public health and a demographic challenge in Ethiopia. Contraceptive use allows girls to postpone motherhood and space births. However, little is known about the trends in contraceptive use and its determinant among girls aged 15 to 19 in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study was designed to identify factors associated with modern contraceptive methods use among sexually active adolescent girls in Ethiopia. Methods Four Ethiopian demographic and health survey data were used to examine trends of contraceptive methods use among sexually active adolescent girls. To identify factors associated with contraceptive use, the 2016 Ethiopian demographic and health survey data was used. The data was accessed from the demographic and health survey program data base and data for sexually active adolescent girls were extracted. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 21. Data were weighted for analysis. Descriptive analysis was used to describe independent variables of the study participants. And design effect was considered during analysis. Multivariable logistic regression model was used to identify factors associated with contraceptive use. Results Modern contraceptive use increased significantly from 5.9% in 2000 to 39.3% in 2016. The odds of contraceptive use were lower among female adolescent who had no education (AOR: .038; 95%CI: (.007 to 0.216), primary education (AOR: 0.112; 95%CI: 0.026 to 0.483). But the odds of contraceptive methods use were higher among adolescent living in rich wealth status AOR: 5.131; 95%CI: (1.795 to 14.669) and those told about family planning during their health facility visit (A0R: 3.700; 95%CI: 1.517 to 9.020) Conclusion Modern contraceptive use increased significantly among sexually active adolescent girls in Ethiopia. Wealth index, education, told about family planning during their health facility visit and partner occupation were factors associated with contraceptive use. Improving economic and educational status of young women may help improve contraceptive use in Ethiopia.

Abstract Background: Sexual and reproductive health and right of young people is a global priority as the reproductive choices made by them have a massive impact on their health and wellbeing, education and economy. Teenage pregnancy is a public health issue and a demographic challenge in Ethiopia. The use of contraceptive method is a most effective way for sexually active adolescent to prevent pregnancy and its related complication. However, little is known about the trends in contraceptive use and its determinant among adolescent girls in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study was designed to examine the trends and correlates of contraceptive use among sexually active girls aged 15-19 years in Ethiopia by using Ethiopian demographic and health survey data. Methods: Four Ethiopian demographic and health survey data were used to examine trends of contraceptive methods use. To identify factors associated with contraceptive use, the 2016 Ethiopian demographic and health survey data were used. The data was accessed from the demographic and health survey program database and data for sexually active adolescent girls were extracted. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 21. Data were weighted for analysis. Descriptive analysis was used to describe independent variables of the study. Multivariable logistic regression model was used to identify factors associated with contraceptive use.Results: Contraceptive method use was increased significantly from 6.9% in 2000 to 39.6% in 2016 among sexually active adolescent girls in Ethiopia. The odds of contraceptive use were lower among female adolescent who had no formal education (AOR= 0.044; 95% CI= 0.008–0.231) and attended primary education (AOR= 0.101; 95% CI= 0.024–0.414). But the odds of contraceptive methods use were higher among adolescents in rich wealth status (AOR= 3.662; 95% CI =1.353–9.913) and those who were told about family planning during their health facility visits (AOR= 3.115; 95% CI= 1.385–7.007).Conclusion: Contraceptive method use was increased significantly among sexually active adolescent girls in Ethiopia in the year 2000 to 2016. Wealth status, educational status and information about family planning during their health facility visits were factors associated with contraceptive use.

Abstract Background Sexual and reproductive health and right of adolescents is a global priority as the reproductive choices made by them have a massive impact on their health, wellbeing, education, and economy. Teenage pregnancy is a public health issue and a demographic challenge in Ethiopia. Increasing access to contraceptive services for sexually active adolescents will prevent pregnancies and related complications. However, little is known about the trends in contraceptive use and its determinants among adolescent girls in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study was designed to examine the trends and factors associated with contraceptive use among sexually active girls aged 15–19 years in Ethiopia by using Ethiopian demographic and health survey data. Methods Four Ethiopian demographic and health survey data were used to examine trends of contraceptive methods use. To identify factors associated with contraceptive use, the 2016 Ethiopian demographic and health survey data were used. The data was downloaded from the demographic and health survey program database and extracted for sexually active adolescent girls. Data were weighted for analysis and analyzed using SPSS version 21. Descriptive analysis was used to describe the independent variables of the study. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to identify factors associated with contraceptive use and adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence interval were presented for significant variables. Variables with a p-value less than 0.05 were considered as significantly associated with contraceptive use. Results Contraceptive method use had increased significantly from 6.9% in 2000 to 39.6% in 2016 among sexually active adolescent girls in Ethiopia. The odds of contraceptive use were lower among female adolescents who had no formal education (AOR 0.044; 95% CI 0.008–0.231) and attended primary education (AOR 0.101; 95% CI 0.024–0.414). But the odds were higher among adolescents from a wealthy background (AOR 3.662; 95% CI 1.353–9.913) and those who have visited health facilities and were informed about family planning (AOR 3.115; 95% CI 1.385–7.007). Conclusion There is an increment in the trend of contraceptive use among sexually active female adolescents in Ethiopia between 2000 and 2016. Significant variations in the use of modern contraception by wealth status, educational level and visited a health facility, and being informed about family planning were observed. Improving the economic and educational status of young women, and provision of information may help in improving contraceptive use in Ethiopia.

Background: Modern contraceptives are proven as the most effective birth control methods. However, it was a change in the pattern of modern method use in Indonesia to traditional. Objectives: This study investigated the pattern of contraceptive use and its determinant in Indonesia between 2007 and 2017. Methods: The study employed data from the Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) 2007, 2012, and 2017. Eligible participants included all women aged 15–49 who were married/living together with a partner. The dependent variable was contraceptive method use categorized as long-term, short-term, and traditional. Weighted pooled logistic regression analysis was applied to determine the shifting patterns of the independent variables related to contraceptive use over time. Results: The trend of contraceptive use in Indonesia has shifted over the three periods of the IDHS. During the three survey periods, contraceptive use was still dominated by short-term contraception, although over the last five years, the proportion has shown a decline of around 9%. Traditional contraceptive adoption followed the same patterns as long-acting reversible contraception (LARC), although having a smaller prevalence. Education level was significantly unassociated with the use of the traditional method at the beginning of the observation. However, more educated and knowledgeable women about contraceptive methods were more likely to use traditional contraceptives, switched from long-acting use following the next five and ten years. Long-term methods were no longer significantly more common among women in Java and Bali after five and ten years; the likelihood of using traditional methods in Java and Bali was growing. Conclusion: This study showed that contraceptive use and determinants were always dynamic over time. Therefore, family planning strategies and policies should adapt accordingly. Giving an understanding of contraceptive methods' benefits and risks through adequate method information is encouraged to prevent contraceptive dropout or switch to less-effective methods.
