INTRODUCTION
1. Family planning is used by couples who wish to limit their number of children, and to control the timing of pregnancy. This is important to ensure the health of the mother and the child.
2. Women who are in poor health cannot provide adequate care for their children and for themselves. The economic benefits of family planning are just as important and attractive.
3. For many couples, child-rearing is a drain on financial resources. By spacing and/or limiting their children, parents and their children will be able to enjoy a better standard of living.
4. Family planning methods involve the use of contraceptive (birth control) which are essentially methods of preventing pregnancy by reducing the likelihood of fertilisation or implantation. These methods are described in Table 4.5

    The control of fertility has always been a topic issue for women. Different pre conception and post conception procedures have been practiced since the ancient times. Abortion has become a major topic for everyone in the United States. It became very focused when the Roe Vs. Wade case was passed. This is because many individuals have strong, colliding opinions on abortion and it’s laws. The two main group views of abortion are pro-life and pro-choice. Pro-life are individuals who believe abortion is wrong, and pro-choice are people who believe it is up to the mother to choose what she wants. While one particular view has not been proven to be correct or incorrect, it has brought many persuasions to the table on what should be considered the…

    Pill, patch, implant, and the IUD are different type of the birth control method that helps women to prevent pregnancy. Most of the women commonly use birth control pills. The birth control pill didn’t come into the picture until the 1960’s and since then it has changed the society and womanhood.

Complications arise when there is a chemical imbalance between these hormones.
