Résumé

Long abandoned in favor of hormonal contraceptive methods, non-medical contraceptive methods are
making a comeback despite their low effectiveness. This study aimed to determine the factors
associated with the use of non-medical contraceptive methods in Burkina Faso. A quantitative
descriptive study was conducted for analytical purposes, utilizing data from phase 1 of the
"Performance and Monitoring for Action" survey conducted from December 2019 to February 2020. A
univariate analysis and a Chi-square test, and used binary logistic regression was performed to assess
the net effect of each independent variable on the dependent variable. A threshold of 5% was used to
present the results. The protocol for this study was authorized by the Burkina Faso Ethics and Health
Research Committee under number 2023-08-207. The sample consisted of 2,167 women aged 15 to 49
using a contraceptive method, with 19% using non-medical contraception. The factors associated with
the use of non-medical contraception at the 1% level (p ≤ 0.01) were parity, level of education, sources
of information, comprehensive counseling, and knowledge of medical contraceptive methods. At the
5% threshold (p ≤ 0.05), the factors were decision-making, type of occupation, individual norms, and
knowledge of non-medical contraceptive methods. The use of non-medical contraception is
multifactorial. The interest aroused by these methods encourages family planning programs to pay
attention to these factors to better accommodate users who resort to these methods.
