Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the determinants of unmet need for contraception in Mongolia which would help address major issues of the national family planning program. Data for this study came from the Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2010 in Mongolia. 5,781 currently married or in union women aged 15-49 years were analyzed. This study examined the determinants of unmet need for contraception employing a binary logistic regression model. The analysis of determinants was further broken down into two models based on the concept of unmet need for contraception, spacing and limiting the number of children. In total, unmet need for contraception among currently married or in union women aged 15-49 years was 21 percent in Mongolia in 2010. Of this total unmet need for contraception, one-fourth was for spacing and three-fourth was for limiting. Due to this composition, the pattern of total unmet need for contraception for limiting was similar to overall pattern of total unmet need for contraception. This study revealed that place of residence, knowledge of contraception, women's age, income, number of living children, and ethnicity significantly determined unmet need for contraception. To promote healthy family planning, the program should focus on women who live in urban areas and enhance contraception knowledge
