Married Bangladeshi women of reproductive age have improved their contraceptive use in recent decades. This review study searched PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar to examine how age and education affect Bangladeshi women's contraceptive behaviors.
Modern approaches were most used by 15-19-year-olds. Between 2011 and 2017-2018, fewer educated women read a newspaper or magazine at least once a week, suggesting older women watch more TV. Over time, elderly adults utilize none of the three media at least once a week. According to the findings, elderly women are the least likely to receive weekly media coverage of their contraceptive treatments. In short, the study found that younger women utilize current contraceptive techniques, while older women may employ them less frequently, and better education significantly enhances contraceptive use, as there is a strong correlation between educational attainment and the utilization of contraception. Moreover, the results indicated that women who were not exposed to the media were less likely than those who were to use contemporary techniques.
The report strongly recommends improving the education of disadvantaged people, particularly Bangladeshi women. To boost the nation's usage of contraceptives, women need effective health behavior education, family planning, and counseling programs.
近几十年来，孟加拉国已婚育龄妇女的避孕措施使用情况有所改善。本综述研究检索了 PubMed、Scopus 和谷歌学术，以考察年龄和教育程度如何影响孟加拉国妇女的避孕行为。
15 - 19岁的女性最常采用现代避孕方法。在2011年至2017 - 2018年期间，受过教育的女性中每周至少读一次报纸或杂志的人数减少，这表明老年女性看电视更多。随着时间的推移，老年人每周至少使用一次这三种媒体的情况都不存在了。研究结果显示，老年女性接受避孕治疗的每周媒体报道最少。简而言之，该研究发现年轻女性使用现代避孕技术而老年女性可能使用频率较低，而且更好的教育显著提高了避孕措施的使用，因为教育程度与避孕措施的使用之间存在很强的相关性。此外，结果表明未接触媒体的女性比接触媒体的女性使用现代技术的可能性更小。
该报告强烈建议改善弱势群体的教育状况，尤其是孟加拉国妇女。为提高该国的避孕措施使用率，女性需要有效的健康行为教育、计划生育和咨询项目。
