| Popis: | Background Increased access to contraceptive methods has been established as a cost-effective strategy for developing countries to reduce maternal and child mortality. Intentions to contraceptive uptake appear to be best predictors of actual contraceptive practice than the unmet need. However, intention to contraceptive use in Ethiopia particularly among postpartum women is not well assessed. Therefore, the objective of this study was to assess intention to use modern contraceptive and to identify factors associated among postpartum women in Aksum town. Methods A community –based analytical cross-sectional study design was done to collect the data from 604 postpartum mothers using a structured questionnaire. The data was collected from March 25 to April 24, 2015. A multivariable logistic regression was conducted to assess factors associated with intentions to use contraceptive methods. Factors influencing intentions on contraceptive methods use were assessed by computing adjusted odds ratios (AOR) at 95% confidence interval (CI) with statistical significant p- value |
