Study Participants

Background. The postpartum period is an important transitional time for couples to put the decision on family planning utilization. However, women in Ethiopia are usually uncertain about the use of family planning during this period. This cross-sectional study was, therefore, aimed at determining the intention of modern contraceptive use and associated factors among postpartum women attending the immunization clinic in Sodo town, Ethiopia. Method. This institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 416 study participants from May 25 to June 20, 2019. The data were collected by using a systematic random sampling technique of interviewer-administered questionnaires. Descriptive analysis was done, and results were presented in texts and tables. Variables at bivariate analysis with a p value < 0.2 were moved to the multivariate logistic regression model to control potential confounding variables. Statistical tests at p value < 0.05 during multivariate analysis were considered as a cutoff point to determine statistical significance. Results. A total of 416 postpartum women participated in the study yielding a response rate of 98.1%. The prevalence of intention on modern contraceptive use among study participants was 70%. The odds of intention on modern contraceptive use was higher among study participants who had secondary school education (AOR=2.052, 95% CI: 1.064-3.958), antenatal care visit (AOR=1.74; 95% CI: 1.02-2.95), knowledge on modern contraceptive use (AOR=2.54; 95% CI: 1.50-4.28), menses resumption (AOR=2.05; 95% CI: 1.14-3.68), and husband approval to use contraceptives (AOR=2.395, 95% CI: 1.501-5.458). Conclusion. The intention of modern contraceptive use among postpartum women was low. Family planning providers should emphasize reducing barriers of intention like lack of education, knowledge, male partner approval, antenatal care visit, and advise the impact of menses on fertility.

Rural Zambia

ObjectiveZambia is among the world’s top 10 countries with higher fertility rate (5.5 births/woman); unmet family planning need for births spacing (14%) and limiting births (7%). Women in rural Zambia (24%) are reported to have unmet need for family planning than those in urban areas (17%). This study was conducted to ascertain factors associated with modern contraceptive use among rural Zambian women.DesignCross-sectional study.SettingRural Zambia.ParticipantsSecondary data of 4903 married or cohabiting rural women (15–49 years) after filtering out the pregnant, urban based and unmarried women from 2013 to 2014 Zambian Demographic and Health Survey (ZDHS) were analysed using SPSS V.22. Multiple logistic regression, Pearson’s χ2and descriptive statistics were performed to examine factors associated with modern contraceptive use.ResultsFactors that were positively associated with contraceptive use were respondent’s education (secondary adjusted ORs (AOR = 1.61, p≤0.002); higher (AOR = 2.39, p≤0.050)), wealth index (middle class, (AOR = 1.35, p≤0.005); rich (AOR = 2.04, p≤0.001) and richest (AOR = 1.95, p≤0.034)), high parity (1–2 (AOR = 5.31, p≤0.001); 3–4 (AOR = 7.06, p≤0.001); 5+ (AOR = 8.02, p≤0.001)), men older than women by <10 years (AOR = 1.50, p≤0.026) and women sensitised about family planning at health facility (AOR = 1.73, p≤0.001). However, old age (40–49 years (AOR = 0.49, p≤0.001)), other religions (Protestants, African traditionalists and Muslims) (AOR = 0.77, p≤0.007), ever had pregnancy miscarried, aborted or stillbirth (AOR = 0.78, p≤0.026) and women without knowledge of number of children husband desires (AOR = 0.71, p≤0.001) were negatively associated with contraceptive use.ConclusionModern contraceptive use in rural Zambia among currently married women of reproductive age group is relatively low (43%). We recommend that appropriate interventions are instituted to increase contraceptive access and use especially among uneducated older rural Zambian women.
