- The study investigates the extent of switching between long-acting family planning (LAFP) methods among women in Ethiopia and identifies the factors influencing these changes.
- Conducted with 377 women, the research found that 53.3% switched their LAFP methods; notably, many transitioned from implants to short-acting methods due to various reasons.
- Key factors associated with LAFP switching included formal education, birth spacing preferences, and perceived infertility, while fears of side effects and misinformation were major barriers to continuing LAFP use.
