Willingness of Pregnant Women in Rural Ghana to Adopt Postpartum Family Planning

Factors Influencing the Willingness of Pregnant Women in Rural Ghana to Adopt Postpartum Family Planning

Uptake of postpartum family planning (PPFP) remains very low in sub-Saharan Africa. Very little is known about how pregnant women arrive at their decisions to adopt PPFP. This information is needed to guide the development of interventions to promote PPFP.
