Abstract

Introduction: UNWANTED PREGNANCY is a worldwide problem that affects women, their families and society, and the essential aim of family planning is to prevent women from UNWANTED pregnancies.Objective: This cross-sectional study was performed for determining prevalence rate of UNWANTED PREGNANCY and some correlative factors in urban areas of Guilan. Materials and Methods: 500 pregnant women in urban Health Centers for prenatal care were selected by cluster sampling. Data were collected with questionnaire consisting of 29 closed questions. Results: Analysis of the information showed that 27.4% of pregnancies were UNWANTED. There was a significant relation between UNWANTED PREGNANCY and the variants: age of mother (p<0.002), number of children (p<0.0001), and mothers educational level (p<0.014). Tendency to ABORTION among pregnant women with UNWANTED PREGNANCY was 58.8%.17% of mothers with previous PREGNANCY had UNWANTED PREGNANCY and 41% of them had ABORTION. There was a significant relation between going to Health Center during PREGNANCY (regular or irregular) and UNWANTED PREGNANCY (P<0.015). In this study, 70.8% of UNWANTED pregnancies were as a result of contraceptive failures and 29.9% of them were due to non-use of contraceptives.Conclusion: The results of this study emphasize the necessity for more care on quality aspects of family planning services and specific attention on counseling.
