Relationship Characteristics and Contraceptive Use Among Couples in Urban Kenya

Year: 2020

Type: article

Abstract: Few studies have used couple data to identify individual- and relationship-level characteristics that affect contraceptive use in urban areas. Using matched couple data from urban Kenya collected in 2010, this study determines the association between relationship-level characteristics (desire for another child, communication about desired number of children and FP use) and contraceptive use and intention to use among non-users.
