Résumé
The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 3.7.1 addresses the importance of family planning. The objective of this paper is to provide information on family planning to policymakers to help increase access to contraceptive methods to women in sub-Saharan Africa. We analyzed data from the Population-based HIV Impact Assessment studies conducted in 11 sub-Saharan African countries from 2015 to 2018 to assess the relationship between HIV services and family planning. Analyses were restricted to women aged 15-49 years who reported being sexually active within the past 12 months and had data on contraceptive use. Approximately 46.4% of participants reported using any form of contraception; 93.6% of whom used modern contraceptives. Women with a positive HIV status were more likely to use contraceptives (P < 0.0001) than HIV-negative women. Unmet need was higher among women who were confirmed to be HIV-negative in Namibia, Uganda, and Zambia than confirmed to be positive. Women aged 15-19 years used contraception less than 40% of the time. This analysis highlights crucial gaps in progress among HIV-negative and young women (aged 15-19 years). To provide access to modern contraception for all women, programs and governments need to focus on women who desire but do not have access to these family planning resources.
