Abstract
The objectives of this study are to determine whether Norplant would be an acceptable contraceptive method for Cambodian women, given its technology and the socio-cultural context, and whether it can be delivered by a private sector clinic with good quality care. This is a prospective cohort study of the first 966 acceptors. It was found the one-year continuation rate was 90.5%, there were no pregnancies and client satisfaction was high. In general, Norplant was delivered with high quality of care. Findings indicate that Norplant suits the contraceptive needs of many Cambodian women and is appropriate for their socio-cultural context. Norplant can be introduced, with high quality care, in a private clinic in a developing country.
