Modern Contraceptive Use

Abstract 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 study was aimed to assess the intention of modern contraceptive use and associated factors among postpartum women attending the immunization clinic in Sodo Town.Method: Institutional based cross-sectional study design with a sample size of 416 was conducted from May 25 to June 20, 2019. The data were collected by using a systematic random sampling technique of interviewer-administered questionnaires. Those candidate variables at Bivariate analysis with a p-value<0.2 were moved to the Multivariate logistic regression model to control potential confounding variables and P-value<0.05 at multivariate analysis was considered as a cutoff pointResults: A total of 416 postpartum women participated in the study yielding a response rate of 98.1 % and 291 (70%) of them had an intention on modern contraceptive use. The odds of intention on modern contraceptive use was higher among respondents who had secondary school education (AOR=2.052, 95%CI: 1.064-3.958) than participants with no formal education. It was also higher among antenatal care visit attendees (AOR=1.736,95%CI:1.021-2.951) than those did not attend antenatal care visit. Knowledgeable participants on modern contraceptive use were more likely intend to use (AOR=2.535, 95%CI: 1.499-4.282) than their counterparts. Besides, the odds of the intention of modern contraceptive use among postpartum women who had menses resumption were higher (AOR=2.047,95%CI:1.141-3.675)than those whose menses not resumed.Participants who had husband approval were more likely to intend to use contraceptives (AOR=2.395,95%CI:1.501-5.458) than their counterparts.Conclusion: The intention of modern contraceptives 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.

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.

Abstract Background Postpartum contraception is important for spacing and limiting childbirth. Although the use of modern contraception has been shown to reduce maternal and child morbidities and mortalities, postpartum women have one of the highest unmet needs for family planning. Inter-birth intervals less than 24 months have adverse effects on both the mother and the child, yet very limited empirical evidence exist on contraceptive use among postpartum women in Ghana. This study sought to determine the prevalence and determinants of modern contraceptive use among postpartum women in the Tema Metropolis, Ghana. Methods A facility-based cross-sectional survey was conducted among 320 postpartum women with babies aged between three and 15 months. Participants were recruited from child welfare clinics in two government health facilities in the Tema metropolitan area using a simple random sampling technique. Data were analyzed using STATA version 15. Chi-square and multiple logistic regressions techniques were used to examine associations between postpartum contraceptive use and key independent variables. Statistical significance was set at p = 0.05. Adjusted odds ratios and their 95% confidence intervals were used to assess the strength of association. Results The prevalence rate of modern contraceptive use among postpartum women was 26.3%. Postpartum contraceptive use was significantly associated with past contraceptive use [AOR = 7.7 (95%CI: 3.4–17.5)]; return of menses [AOR = 4.3 (95%CI: 1.7–11.3)]; resumption of sexual activity [AOR = 4.7 (95%CI: 1.4–15.4)]; discussion of family planning with male partner [AOR = 3.1 (95%CI: 1.03–9.2)]; male partners’ approval of modern contraception [AOR = 18.1 (95%CI: 6.3–51.6)]; family planning counselling received during antenatal care [AOR = 3.5 (95%CI: 1.3–9.9)] and knowledge of at least one modern methods of contraception available at the health facility [AOR = 4.7 (95%CI: 1.9–11.5)]. Conclusions Postpartum contraceptive uptake is low among women in the Tema area. Factors that influence modern contraceptive uptake among postpartum women include past modern contraceptive use, resumption of sexual activity and menstruation, male partner involvement in contraception, family planning counselling during antenatal care and knowledge of the modern methods of contraception available at the health facility. Strengthening family planning education and counselling during antenatal care and using a multi-prong strategy to engage men as partners in family planning will improve postpartum contraceptive uptake.

Abstract Background: The postpartum period is an important entry point for family planning service providers to reduce unintended and too closely spaced pregnancy. A postpartum modern contraceptive service is one of the recommended public health interventions for reducing maternal and child morbidity and mortalities. However, In Ethiopia modern contraceptive use during the postpartum period is low; resulting in unintended pregnancies and unwanted childbearing . there for this study was done to assess utilization and associated factors of modern contraceptives during the postpartum period among women who gave birth in the last 12 months in Injibara Town Awi Zone, North-Western Ethiopia. Methods: A Community based cross-sectional study design was conducted from March 01 to 15/2019 on 400 women who gave birth in the last 12 months preceding the survey. A simple random sampling technique was used to recruit study subjects. Data was collected using interviewer-administered pretested and structured questionnaires. Data were entered using Epi data 3.5 and exported to SPSS version 23 for analysis. The association between variables was analyzed using Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression models and p-value < 0.05 at 95% Confidence interval was considered as statistically significant. Result: The prevalence of modern contraceptive utilization was 58.5% (95% CI: 53.5- 63%) among postpartum mothers. Secondary school and higher educational levels [AOR= 5.02; 95% CI (1.53-16.47)],[AOR= 4.25; 95% CI:(1.32-13.64) respectively)], previous history of abortion [AOR= 3.93; 95%, CI: (1.43-10.84)], having three and four antenatal care visit [AOR= 4.74; 95%, CI: (1.94-11.54)] [AOR= 5.9; 95%, CI: (2.42-14.39) respectively], family planning counselling during antenatal care [AOR=2.81; 95% ,CI: (1.63- 4.86)], having postnatal care [AOR =1.79, 95%, CI: (1.09-2.96)], menses returning after birth [AOR=2.84, 95% CI: (1.77- 4.57)] and resuming sexual activity [AOR= 2.86, 95% CI: (1.71-4.78)] were factors affecting contraceptive use in postpartum period. Conclusion : The prevalence of modern contraceptive use among postpartum women was found to be high in Injibara town. Therefore, strengthen family planning counseling during antenatal care and postnatal care to reduce the missed opportunity of postpartum women to get family planning methods, especially long-acting reversible contraceptives.

Modern Contraceptive Use

Objective(s)Despite substantial and rapid improvements in contraceptive uptake in Uganda, many women continue to have unmet need for contraception. As factors affecting contraceptive use are dynamic and complex, this study seeks to identify current predictors and provide effect size estimates of contraceptive use among women and men in Uganda.Study designA nationally representative cross-sectional population survey, using secondary data from Uganda’s 2016 Demographic and Health Survey. Stratified by sex, weighted bivariable and multivariable logistic regression models were derived from a suite of potential predictor variables. Predictive abilities were assessed via 10-fold cross-validated area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs).SettingUganda.ParticipantsAll women aged 15–49 years who were permanent residents of the selected households or stayed in the household the night before the survey were eligible to participate. In one-third of the sampled households, all men aged 15–54 years who met the same residence criteria were also eligible.Primary outcome measuresModern contraceptive use.ResultsOverall, 4914 (26.6%) women and 1897 (35.6%) men reported using a modern contraceptive method. For women and men, both demographic and proximate variables were significantly associated with contraceptive use, although notable differences in effect sizes existed between sexes—especially for age, level of education and parity. Predictively, the multivariable model was acceptable for women with AUC=0.714 (95% CI 0.704 to 0.720) but less so for men with AUC=0.654 (95% CI 0.636 to 0.666).Conclusion(s)Contemporary significant predictors of contraceptive use among women and men were reported, thereby enabling key Ugandan subpopulations who would benefit from more targeted family planning initiatives to be identified. However, the acceptable AUC for women and modest AUC for men suggest that other important unmeasured predictors may exist. Nonetheless, these evidence-based findings remain important for informing future programmatic and policy directions for family planning in Uganda.

Contraceptive use in Nigeria at 15 per cent is low, despite a high human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence of 3.4 per cent and fertility rate of 5.7 per cent. We assessed the levels of spousal communication on family planning and contraception (FPC) and HIV/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS), influence of demographic characteristics on this communication and association between this communication and the respondents’ health behaviours. We used a cross-sectional and nationally representative data on reproductive health and HIV/AIDS-related issues from randomly selected 30,752 men and women of reproductive age. Descriptive statistics, Pearson chi-square (c2) and logistic regression were used to analyze the data at 5 per cent significance level. About 61 per cent of the respondents were 25–49 years old and mostly from rural areas (65 per cent). Only 20 per cent of the respondents discussed HIV/AIDS with their spouses within 12 months preceding the survey while 15 per cent discussed FPC. A discussion of both HIV/AIDS and FPC among spouses was reported among 9 per cent compared to 26 per cent who reported discussing either. Respondents aged 35–39 years had higher odds of discussing HIV/AIDS (Odds Ratios [OR] = 7.06:6.16–8.09) than those aged 15–19 years. Urban dwellers also had higher odds (OR = 1.24:1.16–1.31) of HIV/AIDS discussions than rural respondents. Modern contraceptive use was 35 per cent and 23 per cent among respondents who discussed FPC and HIV/AIDS compared to 8 per cent and 9 per cent, respectively, among those who did not. Spousal communication on FP and HIV/AIDS was low and has influenced contraceptive use and HIV positivity in Nigeria. There is a need to encourage spousal discussion on FP and HIV/AIDS, especially among the rural dwellers and the poor and uneducated as a strategy for improving modern contraceptive use.

Abstract Background: Postpartum family planning is an important intervention for reducing high risk fertility behavior and spacing birth intervals; which ultimately helpful for the health of mothers and their babies. Hence, this study aimed to determine the magnitude of timely initiation of postpartum contraceptive and associated factors among extended postpartum women in Pawe district, Northwest Ethiopia.Methods: Community based cross-sectional study design was employed from February to March 2019 in Pawe district. A stratified multistage sampling technique was used to select a total of 820 women in the extended postpartum period. Data were collected using a pretested interviewer administered questionnaire. A bivariable and multivariable logistic regression model was fitted to identify determinants of timely initiation of postpartum contraceptive among extended postpartum women. Adjusted Odds ratio (AOR) with 95% CI was computed to assess the strength and presence of an association. Variable with less than 0.05 p-value considered as a significant determinant of contraceptive initiation.Results: Out of the total participants about 37.2% [95% CI (34.0, 40.5)] initiated postpartum contraceptive. Time return of menses [AOR=18.32, 95% CI(11.66,28.80)], postnatal care [AOR=7.8, 95%bCI(3.98,15.44)], knowledge level regarding modern contraceptive methods [AOR=3.0, 95% CI(1.40,6.59)], time of resumption of sexual intercourse [AOR=2.1, 95% CI(1.327,3.21), husband approval to use contraceptive [AOR=2.45,95%CI(1.42,4.22), antenatal care [AOR=2.1,95% CI(1.13,3.76), place of delivery at institution [AOR=2.0, 95% CI(1.22,3.39)], and got family planning counseling at delivery [AOR=2.34, 95% CI(1.22,4.49)] were factors associated with timely initiation of postpartum contraceptive. Conclusion and recommendation: The magnitude of timely initiation of postpartum contraceptive was low. This suggests strengthening the integration of postpartum contraceptive use with other basic maternal health services and improving knowledge of women in practicing timely initiation of postpartum contraceptive before engagement to risk activities of unintended pregnancy is important.

Zika virus (ZIKV) can be sexually transmitted and can lead to severe neonatal and child health issues. The current study examines whether ZIKV-related ideational factors, including awareness of ZIKV and associated birth defects, are related to modern contraceptive use among women and men with sexual partners in four Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) countries. Data used are from cross-sectional household surveys conducted in 2018 in the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras with representative samples of men and women aged 18–49 (N = 1,100). The association between self-reported use of modern contraception and measures of Zika knowledge, risk perceptions and social norms, and contraceptive self-efficacy was examined via sex disaggregated multivariate logistic regression models. Both men (OR 3.70, 95% CI 1.36–10.06, P < 0.05) and women (OR 3.71, 95% CI 2.30–5.99, P < 0.0001), who reported discussing family planning with their partner in the last year were more likely to use modern contraception compared with those who did not. Contrary to our hypothesis, knowledge that ZIKV can affect a fetus was negatively associated with modern contraceptive use for women (OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.29–0.85, P < 0.05). Given the cross-sectional nature of the survey, women not using contraception may be more likely to remember that ZIKV can affect a fetus. In the event of a related outbreak, future health promotion and communication efforts in LAC should focus on known determinants of modern contraceptive use, such as knowledge and partner communication, and knowledge of the health effects of ZIKV if pregnant, to influence family planning decision-making behavior.

Komplikasi kehamilan dan persalinan dapat dicegah dengan pemeriksaan antenatal care (ANC) secara teratur. ANC merupakan kunjungan ibu hamil dengan tenaga kesehatan untuk mendapatkan pelayanan kehamilan sesuai dengan standar yang ditetapkan. Data yang diperoleh dari puskesmas Slawi bulan Januari-Juni tahun 2019 untuk cakupan kunjungan K1 sebanyak 82,1% dan cakupan K4 sebanyak 79%.Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui kepatuhan kunjungan ANC berdasarkan faktor determinan maternal. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian kuantitatif dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Sampel pada penelitian sejumlah 30 ibu hamil menggunakan teknik accidental sampling dan analisis data menggunakan uji chi square. Hasil penelitian menunjukan  mayoritas usia ibu reproduktif sebesar 66,67%, status multigravida (kehamilan kedua dan ketiga) sebesar 66.67%, kehamilan normal (60%) dan telah memenuhi standar K1 sebesar 83.33% dan memenuhi standar K4 sebesar  86.67%. Ada hubungan antara usia ibu hamil dengan dengan kepatuhan kunjungan ANC (p value 0,02)  dan ada hubungan status paritas dengan kepatuhan kunjungan ANC (p value 0,04) dan tidak ada hubungan komplikasi kehamilan dengan kepatuhan kunjungan ANC.Kata kunci : ibu hamil; kepatuhan; antenatal care  ANTENATAL CARE VISIT COMPLIANCE BASED ON MATERNAL FACTORS ABSTRACTOne of the causes of maternal mortality is complications in pregnancy and childbirth. Pregnancy and childbirth complications can be prevented by regular antenatal care visit. ANC is a visit of pregnant women with health workers to get health service in accordance with established standards. Data obtained from Slawi Health Centre in January-June 2019 for coverage of Phase 1 visits was 82.1% and phase 4 coverage was 79%. The objevtive of this study was to determine the regularity of ANC based on maternal determinants. This  study was quantitative research with a cross sectional approach. The number of respondents was 30 pregnant women by using accidental sampling technique. The study was conducted in January-March 2020. Bivariate analysis used chi square test. The results showed that pregnant women who did ANC regularly amounted to 86.67%. The results showed that there was a relationship between age with antenatal care visit because the p value was 0.02, there was a relationship between parity with antenatal care visit with p value 0.04, and there was no relationship between pregnancy diagnosis with antenatal care visit because the p value was 0.08. Pregnant women are expected to perform ANC regularly for early detection of complications in pregnancy. Keywords: pregnant women; compliance; antenatal care
