Periodic Abstinence in the Philippines
This paper presents the main survey findings from a nationally representative sample of 607 users of periodic abstinence methods in the Philippines in 1984. The survey was conducted because of the widespread popularity of periodic abstinence in the Philippines and a lack of detailed knowledge about how the method is understood and practiced in the Philippines.

Continuation and Effectiveness of Contraceptive Practice
Natural Family Planning in the Philippines
The calendar rhythm method of natural family planning (NFP) is one of the most popular contraceptive methods in the Philippines. As a result, the Philippines has one of the highest NFP prevalence rates in the developing world. In recent years, family planning program officials have become increasingly interested in improving the practice of NFP, both by improving the quality of rhythm practice and by introducing newer, more accurate NFP methods. …
Effects of the Philippine Family Planning Outreach Project on Contraceptive Prevalence
The 1980 Community Outreach Survey was used to assess the impact of the Outreach Project involving 2600 community workers on contraceptive prevalence. The primary measure was clinical prevalence (numerator limited to use of clinical methods--pills, IUD, and sterilization; the denominator was married women aged 15-44). The 46 socioeconomic (SES) and program input variables that appeared to be most closely correlated with contraceptive prevalence w…
Estimating the Effects of Contraceptive Use on Fertility
Survey data on contraceptive use-effectiveness and on the fertility of family planning acceptors can provide a useful basis for estimating the fertility effects of a family planning program. The 1974 Philippine National Acceptor Survey (NAS), a sample survey of nearly 3,000 family planning acceptors reported by clinics in 1970--72 and interviewed in 1974, provided data for such an evaluation of the Philippine family planning program. The program'…
Family Planning in Bali
Despite low per capita income and little evidence of economic development, the response to the government-sponsored family planning program in Bali has been remarkably favorable. After five years of government involvement, a total of 29 percent of eligible women are estimated to be using program methods, including 25 percent who have accepted IUDs, and 4 percent more are estimated to be using nonprogram methods. This level of performance is highe…
Differentials in Contraceptive Use-Effectiveness in the Philippines
In order to measure the contraceptive experience of the respondents following acceptance of family planning a National Acceptor survey (NAS) was carried out among a national probability sample of women who had been registered as new acceptors in Philippines family planning clinics during 1970. The survey was conducted in January-March 1972 by the Family Planning Evaluation Office of the University of the Philippines Population Institute. This pap…
The Philippines
Records for 6089 family planning acceptors in the Philippines (which represented about 8.5% of all acceptors for the first half of 1970) were gathered through the National Family Planning Record Keeping System and compared with data from the 1968 National Demographic Survey (a baseline household survey) in order to provide information on acceptors such as the distribution educational level occupation of husband age number of living children desir…
