- Family planning, also known as contraception, involves limiting family size and preventing unwanted pregnancy. There are about 1.2 billion women of reproductive age worldwide.
- In Nigeria, the total fertility rate is high at 5.7, leading to high population growth and a doubling of the population every 22 years if trends continue. However, contraceptive use is low, with only 14.6% using any method and 9.7% using modern methods.
- Family planning methods include natural methods like fertility awareness and lactational amenorrhea, as well as hormonal methods like oral contraceptives, implants, injections, patches, rings, and IUDs. Barrier methods and permanent sterilization procedures

Family planning counselling involves helping clients make informed choices about family size and birth spacing. It is done through individual, couple, or group counselling. The counsellor provides information about available methods, their pros and cons, and ensures clients understand how to properly use the chosen method. Effective counselling follows principles like maintaining privacy and receiving informed consent. Counsellors should be respectful of clients' cultural beliefs and use a step-by-step approach like BRAIDED or GATHER to determine needs, provide options, help choose a suitable method, demonstrate its use, and arrange follow-up care.
Emergency contraceptive pills (ECPs) can prevent pregnancy when taken within 5 days of unprotected sex. ECPs work primarily by preventing or delaying ovulation and may also affect egg and sperm transport. The levonorgestrel regimen is most common and involves taking one or two pills depending on the specific medication. ECPs are not intended for regular use and are meant only for emergency situations when unprotected sex occurred. While side effects can include changes to the menstrual cycle or nausea, ECPs are considered safe and effective for preventing pregnancy when used correctly.

Family planning involves techniques and methods used by couples or individuals to attain their desired fertility goals and manage the number, spacing, and timing of their children's birth. It generally includes fertility education, contraception, and management of infertility. The purposes of family planning are to ensure resources are available to support any desired children and allow people to freely choose if and when to have children. A brief history of the family planning movement highlighted key events like the opening of early family planning clinics and legalization of contraception and abortion access over the 20th century. [/SUMMARY]

Reproductive health refers to total well-being in all aspects of reproduction including physical, emotional, behavioral, and social factors. A reproductively healthy society has physically and functionally normal reproductive organs as well as normal emotional and behavioral interactions among individuals regarding sex. Reproductive and child health programs aim to create awareness about reproduction and provide support for building healthy societies. Introducing sex education in schools can provide accurate information to youth and discourage myths, while educating all groups on issues like family planning and maternal/child care can address building socially healthy communities.

1. “The love for work needs to be re-enthroned in our
lives. Every family should have a plan for work that
touches the life of each family member so that this
eternal principle will be ingrained in their lives.”
- M. Russell Ballard
2. For many centuries, many couples have followed
the counsel that says “Be fruitful and multiply.”
The mother produces many children until she
no longer have the ability to bear child.
Most modern couples have a different attitude
toward bringing more children into the world. --
- “How many children should we have?” “Should
we have any children at all?”
Among the key variables behind the strength
are growing consciousness and awareness of the
world population crises, the influence of
modern culture, the availability of efficient
family planning methods and the sky rocketing
cost of bearing, raising, and educating children.
3. Family planning… (?)
We tend to think immediately of spacing
children and limiting family size.
It even implies birth control.
In the Philippines, it could mean practice of
abortion and infanticide. It means
contraception and planned or responsible
parenthood.
Contraception – prevention of unwanted
pregnancy; Responsible parenthood –
purposeful procreation and socialization of
children.
4. 60% of couples – use some form of contraception; 50% -
use modern methods; 70% - use that demographers call
the “fully contracepting society”
Advances in design & delivery of family planning
services have contributed to the growing use of
contraception.
Health managers face the challenge of achieving
multiple, sometimes conflicting objectives with strictly
limited resources.
Family planning programs must try to meet the needs
of each individual client by consistently offering high-
quality care. They strive to reach as many people as
possible, ideally making services financially and
geographically accessible to the entire
population, including the poor and those who live in

and Psychosocial influences on

6. Philippines’ Family Planning Project
“Strengthening the Social Acceptance of Family
Planning in the Philippines” – was awarded a
Certificate of Excellence, the highest honor in its
category, from the Asia Pacific PR Awards during
ceremonies held in Honk Kong in November.
“Sigurado Ka” – sought to increase support of modern
family planning practices, correct misconceptions
about modern methods, and bring the discussion of
family planning to the forefront of public discourse.
7. Compelling Advertisements
Family planning is often a controversial issue in the
Philippines, and discussion of the issue has taken
place primarily between friends and relatives.
Many families have not had good counseling about
this issue thus they have the wrong information about
the modern family planning methods.
As a result, many women do not use modern methods
and end up having at least one child they did not plan.
8. Open Discussion
One of the advertisements featured a young woman
looking into a mirror and saying disparaging things
about herself and her ability to take control of family
planning.
The “Sigurado Ka” song was also extremely effective in
spreading the message of the campaign. The song was
so popular that it became the second most-requested
song in a top-rated radio station in Metro Manila.
9. What is Natural Family Planning?
It is a way to help a couple determine when sexual
intercourse can and cannot result in pregnancy.
Ovulation – process wherein one of a woman’s ovaries
releases an egg.
10. How does (NFP) work?
Ovulation method - the days just before and just
after ovulation are determined by checking the
woman’s cervical mucus. Pregnant = CM is
stretch, clear & slick; feels much like an uncooked egg
white
Symptothermal method – the woman takes her
temperature every day with a special thermometer and

woman’s egg, keeps the sperm from moving normally
inside the uterus and fallopian tubes, also reduces the
