Knowledge and attitude of Palestinian women to contraceptives: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Contraceptives have documented efficiency, but outcomes are highly dependent on women's understanding of how they should be used. We assessed the knowledge and attitudes of married Palestinian women about contraceptives and understanding of use of the available methods and side-effects.

Methods: This cross-sectional study involved married Palestinian women of childbearing age (18-50 years), and was done between Jan 20, 2017, and Jan, 1, 2018.
