Unmet need refers to fecund women who either wish to postpone the next birth (spacers) or who wish to stop childbearing (limiters) but are not using a contraceptive method. The aim of this study was to assess the unmet needs of family planning and identify associated factors in Debre Berhan town among women in reproductive age. The community-based cross-sectional study design was used among 411 study participants (women with reproductive age) at Debre Berhan town. A systematic sampling technique was used to select the households. Bivariate and multivariable analyses were done to determine the association of each independent variable with the dependent variable.
The overall unmet need for family planning among women in reproductive age groups was found to be 30.9%. Occupational status AOR = 13.992 (1.054-185.833), from whom the respondents got information about family planning AOR = 0.018 (0.002-0.170), having a discussion with husband AOR = 16.692 (2.911-95.713) and support from husband AOR = 0.005 (0.001-0.025) was significantly associated with the outcome variable. The level of unmet need for family planning in the study area is still high compared to the target set (10%) in the national family planning guide plan for Ethiopia.
未满足的需求是指那些想要推迟下一次生育（间隔生育者）或想要停止生育（限制生育者）但未采用避孕方法的育龄妇女。本研究的目的是评估德布雷伯尔汉镇育龄妇女计划生育方面未满足的需求，并确定相关因素。在德布雷伯尔汉镇的411名研究参与者（育龄妇女）中采用了基于社区的横断面研究设计。使用系统抽样技术选择家庭。进行了双变量和多变量分析，以确定每个自变量与因变量之间的关联。
发现育龄妇女中计划生育总体未满足的需求为30.9%。职业状况调整后比值比（AOR）=13.992（1.054 - 185.833），受访者从何处获得计划生育信息的调整后比值比=0.018（0.002 - 0.170），与丈夫进行讨论的调整后比值比=16.692（2.911 - 95.713）以及丈夫的支持的调整后比值比=0.005（0.001 - 0.025）与结果变量显著相关。与埃塞俄比亚国家计划生育指导计划设定的目标（10%）相比，研究地区计划生育未满足需求的水平仍然很高。
