“…[8] Most of the studies done in different parts India quote the unmet need to be <30%. [9101112] The explanation for the wide variation from our findings is the fact that all these studies have included reproductive-age women irrespective of the number of living children as the denominator, while in this study, we have included women with at least two living children as the denominator for calculating the unmet need for permanent methods of contraception. Also, as per modeled estimates for 29 states and union territories in India, New et al have found a high level of heterogeneity in the unmet need across the country.…”

Background:Success of a programme of free-choice participation, like Family Planning Programme, can be envisaged only when focus is on the needs of the people. Although India was the first country to introduce Family Planning Programme, total fertility rate of 2.1 has not yet been achieved, highlighting that the need of limiting family after two children is not yet felt by the people of India. Therefore, the study was undertaken to assess need for limiting family and permanent methods, and factors influencing it among couples with two or more living children.Materials and Methods:A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in rural and urban areas of Haldwani Tehsil, Uttarakhand. Multistage sampling technique was used for selection of study sample. Data were collected using a pretested questionnaire. Statistical analysis was done using Epi Info version 7.2.2.6.Results:Out of 221 women interviewed, only one-third had adopted permanent methods of contraception for limiting family, one-third were using temporary methods, and remaining were not using any contraception. Merely one-third participants were willing to adopt permanent contraception in future. Unmet need for permanent methods was higher among women of younger age, literate woman, and/or husband and joint families. It was lower in women with three or more living children in comparison with women with two children. Unfelt need for limiting the family was 8.6%.Conclusion:Acceptance of permanent methods of contraception was low with temporary methods being equally preferred for limiting family. Unfelt need for limiting still remains in the community despite promotion of small family norm.

Background: Unmet need for family planning is the major problem in developing countries. The use of family planning methods is better in urban areas as compared to rural areas and it is worse in urban slums. Thus unmet need for family planning is more in urban slums. Aims and objectives: To find out the prevalence of unmet need and to estimate the factors associated with unmet need for Family Planning.Methods: A community based cross sectional study was carried out on eligible couples selected from urban slums of Allahabad district by multistage random sampling and were interviewed by using pre-tested schedule. Data analysis was done by using SPSS version 21.Results: The study revealed that 22.47% (80/356) of eligible couples had unmet need for family planning. The most common reason for unmet need was irregular supply of family planning methods (31.25%), followed by opposition from husband/family members (21.25%), fear of side effects of using any family planning methods (17.25%), lack of knowledge regarding any family planning methods (13.75%). The unmet need for family planning was found to be associated with number of live births, education of female participants and occupation of male participants.Conclusions: The unmet need for family planning is high in slums areas and to improve the condition awareness should be created.

Latar Belakang: Salah satu indikator dari keberhasilan program keluarga berencana adalah rendahnya angka pelayanan KB yang tidak terpenuhi. Angka unmet need di Indonesia berdasarkan data SDKI tahun 2017 sebesar 11 %, angka tersebut belum memenuhi target nasional tahun 2015 yaitu 5 %. Provinsi dengan prevalensi unmet need tertinggi yaitu Provinsi Papua Barat dengan persentase sebesar 23,8 % terdapat perbedaan karakteristik antara wilayah perkotaan dan pedesaan. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan determinan pelayanan KB yang tidak terpenuhi di wilayah perkotaan dan pedesaan di Propinsi Papua Barat tahun 2017. Metode: Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan data sekunder SDKI tahun 2017 pada Provinsi Papua Barat menggunakan desain cross sectional dan analisis statistik uji chi square. Hasil: Kelompok WUS dengan unmet need cenderung pada kategori yang sama kecuali pada pendidikan dan paparan informasi KB media massa. Selain itu tidak terdapat perbedaan determinan antara perkotaan dan pedesaan. Pada kejadian unmet need berdasarkan pendidikan memiliki perbedaan antara wilayah perkotaan dan pedesaan (p<0,05). Kesimpulan: Perlunya fokus KIE KB terhadap wanita dengan risiko tinggi dan perlu ada akses terhadap alat kontrasepsi yang bersifat inklusif di mana menyasar pada semua lapisan masyarakat terutama masyarakat dengan ekonomi bawah, selain itu perlu juga meningkatkan partisipasi pria aktif dalam program keluarga berencana.
