There is low tubal ligation services despite high fertility rate and MMR where the overall prevalence of tubal ligation was 2% (Paula Anita,Abel Nzabona & Richard Tuyiragize, 2020). However, family planning is essential in the effort to reduce the fertility rate and the consequential maternal mortality and morbidity as well as contributing to improvement in infant welfare (WHO, 2016). Notably, Uganda's maternal mortality ratio (MMR) stands at 336 per 100,000 live births which is among the highest in the world (UBOS, 2016). According to population projections, the Ugandan population is projected to explode to 130 million by 2050 from the already high 44.27 million people (Population Reference Bureau, 2018). This will further strain the reproductive health services and increase the unmet need for contraception.
