Individual and community level factors associated with modern contraceptive utilization among women in Ethiopia: Multilevel modeling analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Modern contraceptive utilization is the most effective intervention to tackle unintended pregnancy and thereby reduce abortion and improve maternal, child, and newborn health. However, multilevel factors related to low modern contraceptive utilization and the robust analysis required for decision-making were scarce in Ethiopia.
