subject: Family Planning Surgery Center [print this page] What is Family Planning? What is Family Planning?
Family planning is the planning of when to have children, and the use of birth control
and other techniques to implement such plans. Other techniques commonly used include
sexuality education,prevention and management of sexually transmitted infections,pre-
conception counseling and management, and infertility management.
It is sometimes used as a synonym for the use of birth control, however, it often
includes a wide variety of methods, and practices that are not birth control. It is
most usually applied to a female-male couple who wish to limit the number of children
they have and/or to control the timing of pregnancy (also known as spacing children).It
may encompass sterilization, as well as abortion.
Family planning services are defined as "educational, comprehensive medical or social
activities which enable individuals, including minors, to determine freely the number
and spacing of their children and to select the means by which this may be achieved.
Purposes
Raising a child requires significant amounts of resources: time,social, financial,and
environmental. Planning can help assure that resources are available. The purpose of
family planning is to make sure that any couple, man or woman who has the desire to
have a child has the resources that are needed in order to complete this goal. With
these resources a couple, man or women can explore the options of natural birth,
surrogacy, artificial insemination or adoption. In the other case, if the person does
not wish to have a child at the specific time, they can investigate the resources that
are needed to prevent pregnancy, such as birth control, contraceptives, or physical
protection and prevention.
