The signif icant drop in fertility levels is a recognized fact in Pakistan, however; regional disparities are yet observed, that is conditioned to ruling unequal growth of regions and its consequence in local demographic condition. The current study emphasizes regional appraisal of direct determinants of fertility reduction, as a means for the quality understanding of the projected population problems. Stover augmented model (1998) is being employed to analyze the effects of sexual
activity, contraception, induced abortion, post-partum infertility, and secondary sterility on different fertility levels, using three data sets of Pakistan Demographic and Health Surveys, 1990-91, 2006-07 and 2012-13. In the early '90s, secondary sterility showed higher inhibiting effects but afterward; its value increased gradually, putting lesser weight on fertility levels. Sexual activity and post-partum infertility came out as other highly contributing factors whereas, contraception and induced abortion; though increased over time comparatively showed less influence on fertility drop. The study suggests that in prevailing orthodoxy Muslim society; free dialogues on women’s reproductive health and family planning should be supported via government movement. Furthermore; for directing and promoting population cut spouses should give the conf idence to go for sterilization after reaching the preferred family size
