摘要

摘要:尽管印度政府已采取行动改善国家、地区和村庄一级的性健康和生殖健康,但仍有 4 900 万妇女的避孕需求未得到满足。然而,在获得避孕药具后,妇女选择不可逆转方法的比例过高,因此印度是世界上女性绝育率最高的国家。基于这些认识,本研究探讨了妇女赋权(如烹饪、购物和计划生育自主权)、地区(如山区、北部和东部)与避孕药具使用(即任何避孕药具和避孕药具类型)之间的关联。本研究的数据来自 2005 年和 2012 年印度人类发展调查中的已婚育龄妇女(人数=38,634)。多层次逻辑模型的结果表明,妇女赋权水平越高,使用避孕药具的概率就越大,在进行分类后,依赖女性绝育的概率也越大。此外,居住地区也会改变相关性,例如居住在中北部和北部的妇女通常不太可能使用避孕药具。在不同的赋权水平下,西部和南部居民的避孕药具使用率一直较高。这项研究强调了妇女赋权对避孕的重要性,以及在生殖保健服务、避孕观点和生育计划的长期影响方面的地区差异。

Women's Empowerment, Region of Residence, and Contraception among Women in India

Abstract:

Despite actions taken by the Indian government to improve national, regional, and village-level sexual and reproductive health, 49 million women still have unmet contraceptive needs. Yet, when granted access, women disproportionately elect for irreversible methods such that India has the highest female sterilization rate in the world. Building on these insights, the present study examines associations between women’s empowerment (e.g., cooking, shopping, and family-planning autonomy), region (e.g., Hills, North, and East), and use of contraception (i.e., any and type). Data for this study comes from ever-married, reproductive aged women in the 2005 and 2012 waves of the India Human Development Survey (n=38,634). Results from multilevel logistic models showed that higher levels of women’s empowerment are associated with greater probability of using contraception, and after disaggregation, relying on female sterilization. Furthermore, region of residence modifies associations such that women residing in the North Central and North are typically less likely to utilize contraception. Across empowerment levels, residents of the West and South consistently have higher levels of contraceptive use. This study highlights the importance of women’s empowerment for contraception as well as regional differences in reproductive healthcare access, views of contraception, and long-term impacts of fertility planning programs.
