Abstract
Background: (Assuming this is the missing first paragraph)
infections, including human immune deficiency virus. Also antiretroviral treatment has contributed a lot in decline of human immune deficiency virus related morbidity and mortality but a little of it is known in our country.
Objectives:
To assess dual contraceptive utilization and associated factors among pre-ART and ART women living with human immune deficiency virus.
Methods:
Facility based cross-sectional study was conducted. Data were collected through interview using structured questionnaires. Participants were selected by using simple random sampling technique from patient registration book. Bivariate and multivariable analysis was performed using logistic regression on SPSS version 20.0. Adjusted odds ratio with 95%CI was used.
Results:
The prevalence of dual contraceptive utilization of women living with human immune deficiency virus in the Hospital was 28.3% (95% CI: 23.8, 33.7) and significantly associated with receiving follow up counseling (AOR: 6.05; 95% CI: 2.46, 14.83), starting ART(AOR: 0.21; CI: 0.07, 0.64), had no child (AOR: 0.19; 95% CI: 0.06, 0.57), supporting to use (AOR: 6.36; 95% CI: 2.49, 16.28).
Conclusions:
Dual contraception utilization was less than one-third and having no child; receiving follow up counseling in the last 3 months; starting antiretroviral treatment; supporting to use were significantly associated with dual contraceptive utilization. It needs governmental and non-governmental organizations, other professionals and researchers involvement to improve dual contraceptive utilization.
