Abstract

Introduction: Population growth and family marriages are the main causes of increase in THALASSEMIA rates in Iran. This study is conducted to describe FAMILY PLANNING status and its influencing factors, in order to perform successful FAMILY PLANNING programs for the thalassemic couples in Bandar Abbas. Method & Material: This descriptive study was carried out on 300 thalassemic couples that were selected by judgmental and convenient sampling. Data were obtained through conductive structured interview. The results were presented with descriptive statistics and analyzed with Chi-square test. Results: Findings showed that 87.3% of 300 couples were using contraceptives, including OCP (40.5%), tubectomy (21%), coitus interruptus (19.1%), Norplant (1.9%) and vasectomy (0.8%). However, most of them didn’t have enough knowledge about contraceptive methods. 12.7% of couples were not using any of the contraceptive methods and the main reason for 28.9% of them was incorrect information. About 71.3% of subjects hadn’t received any FAMILY PLANNING education. Prevention of pregnancy was related to men education (p<0.004).,women education (p<0.01) and the number of healthy children (p<0.05). Conclusion: According to the results development of appropriate FAMILY PLANNING programs and education about THALASSEMIA disease is necessary.
