Abstract

Objective (s): During recent years fertility rate is decreasing in Iran. This study aimed to assess FERTILITY DESIRE and its correlates in Tehran, Iran.Methods: This was POPULATION BASED STUDY/fa?page=1&sort=1&ftyp=all&fgrp=all&fyrs=all" target="_blank"> POPULATION-BASED STUDY. A sample of married individuals living in all 22 districts in Tehran recruited and were asked whether they intend to have a child at present. Participants were interviewed via a structured questionnaire including items on socio-demographic and reproductive information. Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the association between FERTILITY DESIRE and independent variables.Results: In all 1200 individuals (600 male and 600 female) were interviewed. The mean age of participants was 33.6 (SD= 7.31) years. Overall 36.8% of respondents indicated that they wish to have a child while the remaining 68.2 said that they did not. The results obtained from logistic regression analysis showed that infertility disinterest was associated with marriage duration (OR= 0.91, P= 0.0001, male gender (OR= 1.45, P= 0.02), number of children at present (OR= 2.9, P= 0.0001), poor income (OR= 2.77, P= 0.0001). Other independent variables also showed association in the expected direction, but the associations were not significant.Conclusion: These preliminary findings could shed some light on the topic. It seems there is need to conduct a national survey to have a better insight on FERTILITY DESIRE among Iranians.
