Abstract

Social equity and family planning are core issues for Human development and health wellbeing of a country. This paper discusses the social equity issue regarding family planning and health-related decision-making among males and females in Pakistan. This study graphically demonstrates Pakistan Demographic Health Surveys of 2012-13 and 2017-18 aggregated analysis covered the time horizon 2007-2018 in family planning decision-making and Pakistan's birth control issues and discussed the descriptive data. Also, the Government of Pakistan's (GOP) policy initiates from 2007 to date have been discussed. By referencing this sociological inquiry, evidence shows that males' awareness, education, and decision-making for family planning have a higher impact on the Fertility rate than females' decision-making in Pakistan, which creates social equity gap. Moreover, this study recommend that male awareness and thinking be optimized and changed positively by involving practitioners, religious scholars, and education and awareness campaigns
