Résumé

Some contraceptive methods, such as long-acting and permanent methods, are more effective than others in preventing conception and are key predictors of fertility in a community. This study aimed to determine which factors were linked to married women of childbearing age who no longer desired children using long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) in Yemen. We used a population-based secondary dataset from Yemen's National Health and Demographic Survey (YNHDS), conducted in 2013. The study analyzed a weighted sample of 5149 currently married women aged 15 to 49 years who had no plans to have children. Logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the parameters linked to the present use of LARCs. The final model's specifications were evaluated using a goodness-of-fit test. An alpha threshold of 5% was used to determine statistical significance. Of the total sample, 45.3% (95% CI: 43.3-47.4) were using contraception. LARCs were used by 21.8% (95% CI: 19.6-24.1) of current contraceptive users, with the majority (63.8%) opting for short-acting reversible contraceptives (SARCs). In the adjusted analysis, maternal education, husbands' fertility intention, place of residence, governorate, and wealth groups were all linked to the usage of LARCs. According to the findings, women whose spouses sought more children, for example, were more likely to use LARCs than those who shared their partners' fertility intentions (AOR = 1.44; 95% CI: 1.07-1.94; P = .015). In this study, married women of reproductive age who had no intention of having children infrequently used contraception and long-acting methods. Improving women's education and socioeconomic status could contribute to increasing their use of LARCs.
