Midwives's Procedure of Counselling in Giving Postpartum Contraceptive Counselling to Rural Women in Pakistan

Abstract

    This research study is designed to examine the procedure of counseling faced by midwives in providing postpartum contraceptive counseling services to women in rural areas. A qualitative, inductive study was conducted with 20 midwives working in rural areas. The interviews had semi-structured questions. Thematic analysis was used for the analysis. The study \was conducted in a rural area of Lahore, Pakistan. This study showed that the current level of knowledge of midwives about contraception is adequate as they do not face any problem in giving counseling on contraception in rural areas. There is a great need for policymakers and field workers to better encourage spacing methods and couple incentives to embrace rural women.
