Women making their own informed decisions regarding sexual relations, contraceptive use and reproductive health care (% of women age 15-49)

Proportion of women ages 15-49 years (married or in union) who make their own decision on all three selected areas i.e. can say no to sexual intercourse with their husband or partner if they do not want; decide on use of contraception; and decide on their own health care. Only women who provide a “yes” answer to all three components are considered as women who “make her own decisions regarding sexual and reproductive”.

15至49岁已婚或处于同居关系的女性中，能够在全部三个选定领域自主作出决策的人群占比——具体而言，包括不愿发生性行为时可拒绝与丈夫或伴侣发生性关系、自主决定避孕（contraception）措施的使用，以及自主决定自身的医疗保健。仅当女性在全部三项指标上均给出"是"的答复时，才被视为"在性与生殖相关事务上拥有自主决定权"的女性。
