The relationship between client dissatisfaction and contraceptive discontinuation among urban family planning clients in three sub-Saharan African countries. PLoS ONE, 17, e0271911. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.02719111932-6203https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0271911http://hdl.handle.net/10566/7820Although researchers and practitioners have suggested that the quality of family planning services impacts contraceptive discontinuation, establishing a causal relationship has been challenging, primarily due to data limitations and a lack of agreement on how to measure quality. This longitudinal study estimated the relationship of the dissatisfaction with family planning services on contraceptive discontinuation for a sample of 797 female clients who sought family planning services at urban facilities across Kenya, Nigeria, and Burkina Faso. Clients who sought family planning services were first interviewed in person at private and public health facilities and received a follow-up phone interview four to six months later.enFamily planningContraceptive discontinuationStatisticsPopulationNigeriaArticle
