Intimate partner violence against women among contraceptive users at a primary health care setting in Southern Ethiopia: a facility-based cross-sectional study

Women's experience of IPV on contraceptive users was found to be unacceptably high in the study area. Women's being rural residents, having poor social support and partners who drank alcohol and Khat chewing were predictors of women's experience of IPV. Thus, interventions in improving women's educational status, strengthen the social support systems, and the behavior of partners who use stimulant substances are highly relevant to tackle IPV among contraceptive users in the primary healthcare setting.
