The proportions of adopting rhythm or condom or the both, however, increased afterwards.About 86% of couples who had ever planned adopting the rhythm at registration actually used it. In fact, 16% of those who had ever planned to take pills eventually made this choice, because of their worry about any adverse side effects on mother's and fetus' health. Their knowledge about contraception,especially the pills, was incomprehensiue. APProximately 62% of condom users had not been given any instruction regarding its use when they got this contracoptive device one year later. Half of the pill and spermicide users learnt these respective methods from their friends or relatives. The proportion of delivering contraceptiues alter marriage by;F.P.P. was rather low. By fitting the multinomial logistic regression model, it is indicated that couple's evaluation on contraceptiue methods and contraceptiue goal were the main factors determining newlyweds' method of choice. Wife's knowledge on contraception and the accessibility of contraceptives and devices also influenced the method choice to some extent.展开更多
