The bivariate analysis revealed that there is a significant association between

socio-demographic characteristics and contraceptive use.

Results of the multivariate analysis, From the binary logistic regressron, the

relationship between socio demographic characteristics and contraceptive use is

statistically significant in (P< 0.05), showed that there is a significant relationship

between socio-demographic characteristics( age of women, place of resident, level

of education, ethnicity, region, religion, wealth index, occupation) and
