The changing pattern of post-partum sexual abstinence in a Nigerian rural community
Abstract:
With a structured interview schedule, this study surveyed the pattern of post-partum sexual abstinence in a Nigerian rural community where facilities for active contraception were absent. It was found that the younger generation observed significantly shorter abstinence period (P less than 0.01). Without contraception, the resultant increased period of sexual contact among couples may considerably raise the fertility of the population. The need for family planning services is therefore indicated, preferably integrated into primary health care programmes designed to reach rural communities.
