A survey in two districts of Odisha with reportedly high total fertility rates, i.e., Boudh and Koraput (Annual Health Survey-2014), was performed under the aegis of the Indian Council of Medical Research, aiming to improve male participation in contraceptive acceptance and services. One hundred and forty-eight women out of 217 sterilization acceptors consented to the study. A semi-structured questionnaire with responses regarding the preoperative, operative, and postoperative experiences was used as the tool, and responses were analyzed in SPSS version 25. The outcome variable was a self-reported score of satisfaction on a scale of 1-10; wherein eight was reported by 42.7% of total women. The satisfaction score using linear regression was significant for the total times the woman was pregnant (β = -0.369; P = 0.002), with a unit increase in times, the woman was pregnant, and the satisfaction declined by 0.363 units. The study provides evidence of greater advocacy of a less heard mandate of "respectful contraception."
在印度医学研究理事会的支持下，对据称总生育率较高的奥里萨邦的两个地区（Boudh 和 Koraput）进行了一项调查，该调查旨在提高男性对接受避孕措施和服务的参与度。在 217 名接受绝育手术的女性中，有 148 名同意参与研究。研究采用了一份半结构化问卷，其中包含有关术前、术中和术后体验的回答，作为研究工具，使用 SPSS 版本 25 对回答进行分析。因变量是一个自我报告的满意度评分，范围为 1-10；其中 42.7%的女性报告了 8 分。使用线性回归分析，满意度评分与女性怀孕的总次数呈显著相关（β = -0.369；P = 0.002），每次怀孕，满意度评分下降 0.363 分。该研究提供了证据，证明需要更多地倡导“尊重避孕”这一尚未得到充分关注的要求。
