| Abstract |
Postpartum family planning (PPFP) reduces unintended pregnancies and improves maternal-child health outcomes. The postpartum intrauterine contraceptive device (PPIUCD) is a safe, reversible, and long-acting method(effective up to 10 years). Despite WHO and UNFPA recommendations, global uptake remains low. Objectives of this study are to determine the level of knowledge regarding PPIUCD among contraceptive providers at HCTM and to identify factors associated with good knowledge (Sociodemographic and professional). Conclusion only 35.8% of providers had good knowledge. |
