An important public health problem that cannot be prevented still: Unwanted pregnancies and its epidemiology

Öz

Aim: This study was planned to analyse the unwanted pregnancies and to determine the frequency and causes according to risk groups. Materials and Method: This is a cross-sectional study conducted on 409 married volunteer pregnant women who applied to the hospital for prenatal care. A questionnaire prepared by the researchers was used for data collection. Percentage, mean, and chi-square test were used to evaluate the data. Results: The rate of unwanted pregnancies was found to be 23.2%. The rate of unwanted pregnancy decreases with age. The unwanted pregnancy rate decreases as the education level of the woman increases and this ratio decreases to 18.5% among university graduates. Conclusion: In this study, the high rate of unwanted pregnancies was since most of them were not using a family planning method or using traditional family planning methods. It was found that the risk group with the highest unwanted pregnancy rate was among young women. Since the rate of withdrawal method was high especially in young women and this can lead to unwanted pregnancies, it is necessary to give couples premarital education.
