Data on KPs are being collected on a smaller scale by numerous stakeholders and managed in silos.

This study contributes to filling this gap by examining SRHR dynamics among newlyweds in rural and poor urban areas of Bangladesh, especially focusing on marital satisfaction, fertility preferences, and post-marriage adaptation mechanisms.
