- Abstract
The goal was to identify blind women's knowledge on natural contraception methods. A descriptive exploratory study was carried out at the women's place of choice in July 2010. For data collection, an individual interview was held and its contents were analyzed. Results were categorized into: (1) Statements showing these women's lack of knowledge on natural contraception methods; (2) Incorrect statements and (3) Correct statements about the women's knowledge on natural contraceptive methods. In conclusion, these women know little about their body, underlining the lack of knowledge on natural contraception methods.
