- W2024043105 abstract "Conditions in Guatemala are such that only 23% of women in unions practice contraception which is the lowest among Latin America and 25% of births are unintended. Selected findings from the 1987 Encuesta Nacional de Salud Materno-Infantil (ENSMIL) are provided. Descriptive results are discussed and more detailed analysis on women 15-44 and 15-24 is given. Total fertility is 5.6 births and is higher than the average for both Latin and Central America. Median age is stable at 20 years. Rural women give birth at 19 years compared with urban women at 21 years. Highly educated women give birth at 24 years vs. 19 years for the least educated. 72% of women in union have ever heard of a contraceptive method which drops to 44% among Indian women. Female sterilization is the most common method. 3% use the rhythm method of whom 46% do not know the correct period of conception. 75% of methods are delivered through the private sector and 41% of sterilizations are performed in the public sector. 4 children are desired but among Indian women 6 are desired and among urban women 3. 15% of women in the ENSMIL work outside the home and are twice as likely to use contraception (38% vs. 21%). 16% of working women and 9% of nonworking women are sterilized. Working women with no formal education are far more likely to practice contraception than nonworking women (21% vs. 9%). 22% disapprove of family planning (FP) messages on radio and television and 42% of Indians living in the Interior disapprove. 33% of Guatemalan women and 64% of women living in the Department of Guatemala have had a pelvic exam. 46% of women who have had a pelvic exam used contraceptives. Unplanned births increase with age and educational level; those better educated working outside the home had a higher level but they were mistimed births. Compared with the Maternal and Child Health Survey of 1983 unplanned pregnancies increased by 48% among Ladinos 62% among residents of the Department of Guatemala and 72% among Indians in the Interior. 42% of married fecund women want no more children. Use of sterilization has decreased over time but accounts for 44% of contraceptive use and is very high among uneducated women who were 1st-time users. 16% of 15-24 years olds had intercourse preceding marriage. Urban women tended to delay sexual intercourse. 22% of 1st births are conceived out of wedlock for 15-24 year olds. 50% of 15-24 year olds have heard of the pill or sterilization but only 22% among women in the Interior. 9% know the timing of conception. Lack of knowledge of contraception was the most common reason for not using contraception at 1st intercourse. The Guatemalan Demographic and Health Survey reflects minimal estimates based on a comparison with a prior survey." @default.
