Abstract
The rising population is a pervasive and enduring aspect of every
society. The rising trend of high fertility rates in Pakistan is due to lack
of family planning practices. Specifically, in a backward area of
Pakistan, the people do not practice family planning methods. The
current study aimed at investigating the knowledge about family
planning among Pashtun families. The 200 females with the
reproductive age have been selected for collecting the relevant
information. The results of the study indicated that the knowledge of
females towards family planning and contraceptive method are below to
the mark. The females have no rights to take family planning,
reproduction or contraception oriented decision, therefore their
knowledge, about family planning were not found to be adequate.
