The Health Blog launches its new blog feature which tackles on family planning. Basically, it will give information about the current methods of family planning, its advantages and disadvantages, etc. This is to help families to decide on which family planning methods to use.
Planning for your family basically means you love them. It means you are planning for their future. Further, you value the health of the mother. Through using contraception, a woman could avoid high-risk pregnancies thereby improving her health by making it possible for her to have children when she is physically and mentally prepared for it. Proper birth spacing allows the mother to have sufficient time to recover her health. Maternal risks related to pregnancy and child delivery are greatly reduced. At the same time, the baby is given enough care, attention, and nourishment before another child is born.

Great that you are launching this series on contraceptive methods. I thought you may like to vist the site http://www.fphandbook.org which hosts a handbook about all the modern methods and more written for health care providers in developing countries. It contains all the latest evidence and reflects information provided by the World Health Organization and many other public health experts in a precise, easy to navigate format.
