As we determine on knowledge of the women in postpartum period about family planning; it has been determined that 92.9% of the women find methods of family planning necessary and beneficial but 74.4% of them scared about methods (because of 50% side effects, 39.7% pragnancy scare, 10.3% applying method), 7.4% of them can not get them easily (because of distance and embarrassment), 29.4% of them use one of the traditional way withdrawal in particular time of their life, 92.6% of their hushands are deciding the way for prevent pragnancy, 52.4% of them already got information about family planning (mostly about oral contraceptive) and 44.2% of them don’t know whether the family planning have any protections about sexually transmitted diseases or not. It has been designated that 90% of the women in postpartum period are thinking about using family planning methods and these methods are condom (36.7%), intrauterine device (27.4%), oral contraceptive (9.7%), female sterilization (9.3%), withdrawal (9.3%), injectable (3.8%) and the reason for preference of method is most of the women are finding these easy to use (38.4%). Also it has been determined 15.6% of women in postpartum period don’t think about any kind of method because of their husband doesn’t want, the most important factor to choose family planning method is their husband and his family, 56.6% of them never think about having a medical operation for not having a baby, 28.3% of them are thinking about breastfeeding will prevent them to be pragnant (38.2% six months) but 79.9% of them didn’t get any information about this topic. In this research it determined that; women don’t have enough knowledge about family planning methods, they are scared from the side effects of the methods, despite modern methods they insist on keep using the withdrawal method, they get pragnant more then they planned along their life time and husband and his family is important factor to choose the family planning method.
