Yet sexual activity in the country is on the increase especially among young persons (10-24 years).Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the level of contraceptive knowledge and practice among female teachers of reproductive age group (15-49 years) in Nnewi, Anambra State, Nigeria.Methods: A cross sectional descriptive study of the contraceptive knowledge and practice of 384 teachers of reproductive age (15-49 years), teaching in both primary and secondary schools within Nnewi Town, Anambra State between April and June 2010.Results: Majority of the respondents, 372 (97.0%), had knowledge of at least one form of contraceptive method.The best known method of contraception was the natural method, 180 (46.9%). The highest knowledge for the modern method was that of condom, 178 (46.4%), while the least known was sterilization methods, 35 (9.1%). The commonest source of information was the mass media. Ever use of contraception was found in 219 (57.0%) respondents while current use was found in 154 (40.0%). Husbands' approval, 90 (58.4%) was the commonest reason for choice of a particular method while the least reason was cost, 8 (5.1%).Conclusion: A disparity exists between knowledge and contraceptive practice among female teachers of reproductive age in Nnewi.
