Objective: In this study, it was aimed to determine the frequency of married women using methods related to family planning and the factors associated with method use.
Method: 400 women between the ages of 15 and 49 were a part of the research, which was carried out as a descriptive and relationship-seeking study. The family planning attitude scale and a personal information form were utilized in the data collection phase of the study, and data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS 25 program. Ethics committee permission and written consent from the participants were obtained for the habituation to take place. T-test, one-way variance, and multiple regression analyzes were used in the analysis of the data.
Results: It was determined that the total mean score of the family planning attitude scale of the women was 133.49 ± 18.78, 67% of them used a modern family planning method, and 32.5% of them received counseling for family planning. It has been found that women's family planning attitudes are affected by age, income level, availability of family planning products and method selection reasons. It has been determined that the family planning attitude scale sub-dimensions of women who have experienced abortion/abortion have lower attitudes towards family planning and family planning method attitudes than women who have not experienced abortion/abortion.
Conclusion: According to the research, women have positive attitudes regarding family planning, but not at the level that is ideal. More effectively delivering training and consulting services is crucial to fostering a good attitude toward family planning.
