Overview

Retrospective study finds sociodemographic factors drive contraceptive use in reproductive-age women, highlighting targets for family planning policies.

Key Points

  • To identify sociodemographic factors associated with modern and current contraceptive use among reproductive-age women using national survey data from Rwanda.
  • Retrospective cross-sectional analysis using the 2019–2020 Rwanda Demographic and Health Survey dataset.
  • Evaluated associations between contraceptive uptake and demographic factors using multivariate regression analysis.
  • National contraceptive uptake in Rwanda increased from 17% in 2005 to 64% in 2020.
  • Multivariate analysis identified age, marital status, number of children ever born, education level, religion, and wealth index as significant predictors of contraceptive use (p < .001).
  • Urban versus rural place of residence showed no statistically significant association with modern contraceptive use.
