Abstract

Family planning refers to the use of contraceptive methods to prevent unintended pregnancy, limit the number of
children and space childbirth. Contraceptive methods are classified as modern or traditional methods. A growing
number of women and men of reproductive age wish to regulate their fertility and have fewer children. The Health
institutions need to work more closely with the a Health Service to train its service providers to ensure that
prospective family planning acceptors are counselled adequately on common side effects of their methods of choice.
The Health sectors should organize seminars and campaigns to increase knowledge about family planning and reduce
bad believing’s related to the religion about family planning. The government and health organizations should
organize seminars and campaigns to increase education of married women and create project of jobs that have equal
opportunity to apply. The doctors and primary health care professionals should encourage taking of family planning
in breast feeding women instead of discouraging. All stakeholders in family planning must do their best to extol the
virtues of family planning to men and help involve them in family planning.
