| dc.description.abstract | Modern Family planning is one of the most cost-effective ways to prevent maternal, infant, and child mortality. This paper x-rays the determinant factors of modern family planning practices among women of reproductive age in a theoretical perspective. Data collected for this paper were mostly through secondary sources. Findings show that knowledge about modern planning, women's approval of the practice, perceived husband’s approval of contraception, and couples discussion about modern family planning are the proximate determinants of modern family planning practice among women of reproductive age. The paper concludes that traditions and misunderstanding are affecting the utilization of modern family planning thereby preventing women of reproductive age to make knowledgeable choices. Premised on these observations, the study recommends that there is a need to expand and intensify education on modern family planning programmes to adequately cater to women of reproductive age, and modern family planning providers should provide accurate, unbiased, and essential information about the various confraceptive methods. This would remove the problem of both real and imagined side effects of helping women to make informed choices. | en_US |
