| description | Background Improving contraceptive prevalence in resource-limited countries is one of the cost-effective strategies to reduce the high and unacceptable global maternal mortality rate. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence and factors associated with the use of contraceptive methods in Burkina Faso.
Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study in 2015 which involved women of childbearing age who were engaged in sexual intercourse activities. Multivariable logistic regressions were performed to identify the factors associated with the use of modern contraceptive methods.
Results: A total of 761 women were included in the survey. Overall, modern contraceptive prevalence in the district was 18.1% ([95 % confidence interval (CI): 15.1%-21.1%]). After adjustment, women aged 21-30 years used modern contraceptive methods in the 12 months prior to the survey more than the others (Adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 2.5; 95% CI: [1.3-4.8]). Traders (AOR = 0.1; CI: [0.04-0.5]), housewives (AOR = 0.2; CI: [0.07-0.6]), and farmers (AOR = 0.05; [0.01-0.2]) reported using a contraceptive method less than students. Similarly, indigenous women used modern contraception less than those who had lived in the study area for less than two years (AOR = 0.3; CI: [0.1-0.7]).
Conclusion: The prevalence of modern contraceptive use in the Djibo health district is low. Some professional activities and indigenous status are factors favoring the non-use of modern contraceptive methods. Programs targeting indigenous women, housewives and traders could help to fill the gap in modern contraceptive methods utilization. |
