Contraceptive use was significantly associated with age, education and parity, but not with HIV status. HIV status, number of living children and education are not statistically associated with discontinuation of contraceptive use Pills and injections had the highest rates of discontinuation.

Furthermore, special efforts may be needed to remove barriers to contraceptive use amongst younger women.
