Abstract
INTRODUCTION:Sexually active females in the reproductive age could be classified according to their need for contraception into four categories: females with no need because of being un-fecund, females with no need because of a desire to become pregnant soon, females with no need because of current contraceptive practice and females with unmet need.As having updated estimates of the unmet need for family planning is vital for monitoring success in family planning programs and showing the need for corrective actions that could accelerate the Egyptian achievement of sustainable developmental goals and reduction of maternal mortality. Thus this study was conducted to investigate the problem of unmet need for family planning among married women in the reproductive age in El-Amryea district. This district has similar characteristics of Bedouin population which is infrequently touched.
