There appears to be an increasing trend of condom use for pregnancy prevention among nulliparous and multiparous women in developing countries. Drawing from a cross-sectional survey involving 1227 women selected using a 3-stage cluster random sampling technique, the study examines the rates of condom use and its determinants among parous women in three states in North Central and South Western Nigeria.
The rate of condom use among parous women was 13.8% and 23.2% among women using any form of contraceptives. After adjusting for confounding factors (religion and marital status, socioeconomic status and access to a health facility in the resident community), women aged 26-35 (AOR 2.7; CI 1.6-4.5), urban residence (AOR: 3.6; CI 2.2-5.8), no income (AOR: 2.7; CI 1.4-4.9), living in Ekiti State (AOR: 1.8; CI 1.2-2.8) and having a tertiary level of education (AOR: 4.5; CI 1.3-15.6) were the independent predictors of condom use. There is an increasing trend of condom use among parous women.
在发展中国家，初产妇和经产妇使用避孕套预防怀孕的趋势似乎在增加。该研究采用三阶段整群随机抽样技术，对1227名女性进行横断面调查，考察了尼日利亚中北部和西南部三个州经产妇使用避孕套的比例及其决定因素。
经产妇中使用避孕套的比例为13.8%，在使用任何形式避孕措施的女性中为23.2%。在对混杂因素（宗教和婚姻状况、社会经济地位以及在居住社区获得医疗设施的机会）进行调整后，年龄在26 - 35岁的女性（调整后比值比[AOR]为2.7；置信区间[CI]为1.6 - 4.5）、城市居民（AOR：3.6；CI 2.2 - 5.8）、无收入（AOR：2.7；CI 1.4 - 4.9）、居住在埃基蒂州（AOR：1.8；CI 1.2 - 2.8）以及受过高等教育（AOR：4.5；CI 1.3 - 15.6）是使用避孕套的独立预测因素。经产妇中使用避孕套的趋势呈上升趋势。
