Influence of family head's reproductive behaviour on the use of modern contraceptive methods by other members of the family in rural Bangladesh.

A study in Bangladesh showed that the probability of use of modern contraception by eligible family members of a household increases significantly if the household head himself is a user. Multinomial logistic regression showed that contraceptive use was also significantly related with maternal age, parity, education, socioeconomic status and experience of child mortality. Inclusion of ever use of modern contraceptives by the family head or his wife, showed family head's religiosity to be a significant predictor of use, apart from his age and parity, and after controlling for socioeconomic correlates.

In this opinion poll, 1000 women from Switzerland aged 15 to 45 years were asked about their use of contraceptives. The most favorite contraceptive is the pill (31%); however, it is more popular among younger women than older ones. Safety of contraception is mentioned as the main advantage of the pill. In second and third place come the condom (17%) and the intrauterine device and sterilization (6% each). The reasons for choosing one or the other type of contraception and the sources of information are discussed. Information and counselling from the family doctor was rated as "very good" and from the gynecologist as "good" to "very good".

Determinants of contraceptive method choice after first delivery, before first abortion, and after first abortion in east China.

A 10% sample of the data from East China from the two-per-thousand fertility and contraception survey of the Chinese State Family Planning Committee was analysed to study determinants of contraceptive choice in three situations: after first surviving delivery; before first abortion after first surviving delivery; and after first abortion. A total of 2880 women were included. For first method choice after first delivery, the most popular method is the IUD, although there are urban/rural differences. Better educated women in urban areas prefer the condom and IUD to the pill, whereas better educated women in rural areas prefer the pill. Younger women prefer the IUD and the pill. For last method choice before first abortion, women who had no sons had apparently high failure rates on the pill.
