Aile planlaması “çiftlerin ve bireylerin istenilen sayıda çocuk planlamak ve sahip olmak, doğumların aralığını ve zamanlamasını düzenlemek için bilinçli çabalarıdır. Kaynak sıkıntısı çeken ülkelerde kadınların doğum kontrolüne yönelik ilaç ve cihazlara erişimi zor. Çalışmada Türkiye'de yaşayan 15-49 yaş arası Somalili kadınların AP yöntemleri kullanımının değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. 60 kritik sorudan oluşan bir anket hazırlandı. Hazırlanan anket 15 ilde deneklerle yüz yüze uygulandı. Aile planlaması Somalili kadınların kültürleri, gelenekleri, sosyal yaşam tarzları, gelirleri ve dini inançlarının baskısı altındadır. 18 yaş altında gebelik oranı 1/5'tir. FP yöntemini kullanmayanların oranı ise 1/3’tür. Gelir düzeyi yoksulluk sınırında. FP'yi iyileştirmek için eğitim ve organize sağlık sunumu desteği doğru planlanırsa obstetrik sorunlar azalacaktır.

The use of family planning methods by Somali women between the ages of 15-49 living in Turkey and their plans and attitudes towards these methods

Öz

Family planning is “the conscious effort of couples and individuals to plan and have the desired number of children and to regulate the spacing and timing of births. In countries with resource shortages, it is difficult for women to access medications and devices for birth control. The study aimed to evaluate the use of FP methods by Somali women aged 15-49 living in Turkey. A survey consisting of 60 critical questions was prepared the prepared survey was administered face-to-face with the subjects in 15 provinces. Family planning is under pressure from Somali women's cultures, traditions, social lifestyles, incomes, and religious beliefs. The rate of pregnancies under the age of 18 is 1/5. The rate of those who do not use the FP method is 1/3. The income level is at the poverty line. Obstetric problems will be reduced if education and organized health delivery support are planned correctly to improve FP.
