Sociodemographic factors associated with birth interval: a study among rural women in Chandina, Comilla, Bangladesh

ConclusionThe prevalence rate of 21.9% for birth intervals of less than 36 months found in this research provides some insights into the measures that need to be taken to encourage women in rural communities to lengthen their birth intervals to more than 36 months. This could prevent complications that may arise from shorter birth intervals and frequent pregnancies.
