“…This study found that women with at least one child exhibited a higher likelihood of intending to use modern contraceptives, corroborating findings from previous studies 56 58 59. Women with more children may have different attitudes towards contraception, as they may consider factors such as family size and spacing between children 60. Additionally, the number of children may affect their perceived control over contraception, especially if they desire to limit their family size.…”

ObjectiveContraception constitutes a vital aspect of sexual and reproductive healthcare. However, the high prevalence of non-use has become a great public health concern globally. This study examined the intention to use contraceptives and its associated factors among women of reproductive age who were not using any method in Liberia.Design and settingA cross-sectional population-based study was conducted. We used data from the 2019–2020 Liberia Demographic and Health Survey. The research framework used the theory of planned behaviour to identify the factors that influence women’s intention to use contraception.ParticipantsThe study analysed a weighted sample of 4504 women aged 15–49 who were not currently using any form of contraception.Data analysisThe outcome variable was the intention to use a contraceptive method. A binary logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with the intention to use contraceptives in Stata V.13.0.ResultsOf the 4504 women, 39.42% intended to use contraception. Contraception intention was significantly lower in married women than in never married women (adjusted OR (aOR) 0.78; 95% CI 0.62 to 0.98). Additionally, women aged 25–34 (aOR 0.434; 95% CI 0.339 to 0.556) and 35–49 (aOR 0.120; 95% CI 0.088 to 0.163) had a reduced intent to use contraceptives than those aged 15–24. However, women with at least one child, those with prior contraception experience and those who had their first sexual encounter at the age of 13 or older were more likely to intend to use contraception. Notably, Muslim and wealthy women displayed a lower likelihood of intending to use contraception.ConclusionThese findings highlight that attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control significantly influence women’s intentions to use contraception. Understanding and addressing these factors are crucial for promoting effective contraceptive use among women, facilitating informed reproductive choices.

Background: The postpartum period is a critical moment for the delivery of family planning services. However, the utilization of family planning among women in sub-Saharan Africa is not optimal. Therefore, the current study aims to assess the intention to use postpartum contraception and its related determinants in the sub-Saharan African setting. Methods: This study utilized a comprehensive search strategy that involved searching several databases, including PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE, Science Direct, Google Scholar, and online research institutional repository homes. Data extraction was performed using Microsoft Excel, and statistical analysis was conducted using STATA software (version 14). To assess publication bias, a forest plot, Begg's rank test, and Egger's regression test were employed. Heterogeneity was evaluated using the I 2 statistic, and an overall estimated analysis was conducted. In addition, sensitivity analysis was performed to examine the impact of each study on the overall estimate. Meta-regression analysis was conducted to identify potential sources of heterogeneity. Finally, the pooled odds ratio (OR) for associated factors was calculated. Result: After reviewing 1,321 articles, 14 studies were deemed eligible for inclusion in this meta-analysis. The final analysis comprised a total of 39,936 study participants. The overall intention to use postpartum contraception in sub-Saharan Africa was found to be 62.21% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 55.532–68.875). In subgroup analysis, the highest prevalence of intention was observed in Ethiopia (66.71%; 95% CI: 50.36–83.05), while the lowest prevalence was reported in Ghana (59.39%; 95% CI: 50.22–68.57). The intention to use contraception was found to be 67.22% (95% CI: 62.37–72.07) and 54.53% (95% CI: 46.61–62.45) for institutional and community-based studies, respectively. Maternal educational status (OR = 1.22; 95% CI: 1.09–1.38) and husbands' approval of contraceptive use (OR = 2.395; 95% CI: 1.256–4.567) were identified as predictors of intention to use postpartum contraception. Conclusion: In conclusion, the results of our study show a comparatively low intention toward the use of postpartum contraception, in contrast to findings reported in other countries. As such, we recommend that stakeholders prioritize maternal education and encourage male partner involvement in family planning decisions.

“…Single studies within our scoping review examined contraception and immediate postpartum care aspects, indicating that better follow‐up both medically/psychologically, and from a contraception perspective to either prevent or delay future pregnancies, was required 42,47 . It is recognised generally that unmet need for contraception results in substantial maternal mortality and therefore contraception has the potential for reducing rates of both MNM and maternal deaths; 64–66 better integration of family planning into maternal health services is still urgently needed especially in developing countries 67 …”

Background: Severe maternal morbidity or maternal near miss (MNM) events can have significant consequences for individuals, their families and society and the study of these events may inform practices to reduce future adverse pregnancy outcomes. Aims:To review the scope of MNM studies undertaken in Australia, New Zealand, South-East Asia and the South Pacific region. Materials and Methods:A systematic search of four online databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, SCOPUS and CINAHL) and the World Health Organization Library was conducted to identify all relevant studies published between 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2020. The studies were reviewed and included if they assessed MNM using a composite outcome or a predefined set of indicators. Results:The literature search yielded 143 articles of which 49 are included in this review. There were substantial differences in the monitoring approach to MNM in the Australasian region. Overall rates of MNM in the region ranged from two to 100/1000 births and the most common aetiologies identified were direct obstetric causes such as postpartum haemorrhage, pre-eclampsia and sepsis. Multidisciplinary review indicated a substantial number of MNM cases were preventable or amenable to improved management, mostly from a provider perspective.Conclusions: Assessment of MNM is an important part of the evaluation of maternity care provision. Reaching a consensus on indicators and how best to collect information will allow a more discerning assessment of MNM including longerterm health outcomes, aspects of preventability and financial implications for health services.
