Postpartum family planning among women attending maternal and child health centers in Assiut Governorate, Upper Egypt

20245 citationsOpen accessAssiut University

Abstract

Postpartum contraception use was associated with receiving PPFP counseling by health care providers and women's knowledge and attitude regarding PPFP. However, FP counseling was not integrated with other MCH services. Updating the components of MCH services to include PPFP counseling during ANC, at delivery, and during the postpartum period should be prioritized by program planners and policymakers.
