The first issue of the year 2004 is very special
to us for a couple of reasons. This is the first
issue co-ordinated by our new Project
Co-ordinator, Veronique Terrasse.
Rene Queffelec, after working with us for
two and a half years, moved on to new
challenges during last December. He has been
replaced by Veronique Terrasse, who has
extensive media experience working in
Afghanistan.
This issue focus on family planning, which is
an important need for the refugees and migrants
workers. We also provide information about
contraceptives and practical tools to manage
counselling session.
We are also running a special supplement on
mental trauma in this issue, which is one of the
common problems for the people living along
Thai-Burma border.

Why is Family Planning Important?
Health Messenger Team
This article demonstrates the importance of family planning by showing how the lives of
women and children can be saved.
Each year, half a million women in developing
countries die during pregnancy or in childbirth.
Burma still has one of the highest maternal death
rates in Asia, and many of these deaths are the
result of complications from unsafe abortions.
Modern methods of contraception are not widely
used in Burma. UNFPA estimates that only 28%
of fertile-age women use a modern method of
contraception, which indicate an unmet need for
fertility control.
Family planning allows parents to choose the
number of children they want to have, when they
want to have them. It does more than just enable
women and men to limit family size. By allowing
enough space between the birth of two children
and choosing the best time to have a child, family
planning save lives and improves the health of
both women and children.
Family planning can save the lives and
improve the health of women.

and even death.
It is especially important for certain groups
of women for whom pregnancy may be a
greater risk. This includes women under age
18 and those who are over 35 years of age.
Pregnancy is also a greater risk to women
who have had more than four children or to
those who have health problems such as
anaemia, heart disease, hepatitis, measles
or renal disease.
Some contraceptives used for family
planning can guard a woman’s health by
providing protection from sexually
transmitted diseases. The consistent and
correct use of condoms can lower the risk
of HIV/AIDS, gonorrhoea, chlamydia and
other sexually transmitted diseases.
•
When contraceptives are used to space
births by at least two years, infant and child
deaths can be reduced.
When births are less than two years apart,
the average chance of death during infancy
is increased by 60-70 percent.
Children born very soon after a previous
delivery are more likely to be premature.
They are more likely to have a low birth
weight, and this increases their chance of
dying.
When children are born close together, the
preceeding child is less likely to survive.
The arrival of the new baby means breast5

feeding stops and the mother has less time
to care for the older children.
When children are born less than 12 months
apart, the risk of death for the preceding
child is increased by 70 -80 percent.
Infants born to mothers under age 18 are at
a greater risk of dying. A woman under
age 18 is more likely to give birth
prematurely, with an underweight baby. The
higher risk of death for these babies
continues through childhood.
Infants born to mothers who already have
four or more children are at greater risk of
dying. The higher risk may be related to
maternal age. Births to mothers above age
35, pose a greater risk for both the mother
and infant.
Family planning improves the family’s well
being.

Healthy spaced carrot compared to unhealthy unspaced carrot
Couples with fewer and healthier children
are usually better able to provide for their
children and themselves with adequate food,
clothing, housing and educational
opportunities.
With a contraceptive method, couples can
enjoy their sexual relations more because
they do not have to fear an unwanted
pregnancy.
Family planning can help avoid one of the
most traumatic events for a family, which is
the death of a mother. A mother is vital to
the family’s emotional and physical well
being, and family planning can help ensure
a mother is healthy.
A healthy pregnancy
The mother’s age, the number of children and the space between two births are important
factors for a safe pregnancy. To minimise the risks women should avoid getting pregnant
•
•
•
•
Too early: before 18 years old, young women face greater risks during pregnancy
because their bodies are not fully mature.
Too late: after 35 years old, women face greater danger in childbirth and delivery,
because their bodies might not stand the burden of pregnancy and delivery. Maternal
death is five times higher after 35 years old than it is between 20-29 years old.
Too many times: risks of death and complication increase for each birth after the
fourth. The risk of maternal death is 1.5 to 3 times greater for women with five children
or more than for women with two or three children.
Too close together: a woman’s body needs to recover after each pregnancy. There
is more heath risks for both mothers and children when a pregnancy comes less than
two years after the previous one.

What are the D ifferent
C ontraceptive M ethods?
The following article gives an overview of the different types of contraceptive methods and
their mode of action inside the body (what they are and what they are doing inside
the human body to prevent pregnancy).
Family planning offers many different
contraceptive methods. They vary from natural
contraception to sterilisation and from shortacting daily oral pills to long-acting injectables,
intrauterine devices, implants or barrier
methods.
No one method is best for all couples.
Throughout their reproductive lives, women will
choose the most appropriate methods according
to their health, social and personal criteria.
The wide choice of contraceptive methods
means that health workers have a crucial role in
guiding couples and women to make informed
choices. This involves providing clear
explanations of the methods available, and
Other forms of contraception:
Natural methods of family planning attempt to prevent pregnancy without the use of any
devices or chemicals or medicines.
These methods help a woman know when she is fertile (able to become pregnant), so she
can avoid having sex with her partners at that time.
They are less reliable than other methods such as hormonal methods, IUD, or Norplants...
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
Lactational Amenorrhea method (LAM) : contraception achieved by exclusively
breast feeding baby for up to 6 months after birth provided the woman’s menses
have not returned yet
Rhythm or calendar Method: calculating fertile and infertile days according to the
length of the woman’s menstrual cycles. (See issue 21 page 33 for rhythm methods
and menstruation cycle)
Cervical mucus methods: calculating fertile and infertile days by the change of
character of the cervical mucus.
Basal Body Temperature (BBT): calculating fertile and infertile days by observing
changes in the woman ‘s basal body temperature.
All those methods are approximated and have a high failure rate!!

making sure every woman or couple understand
the side effects and the effectiveness of the
methods. In this magazine, we will focus on
the methods of contraception with the highest
rates of success. For space reason we are
only giving an overview of the other forms
of contraception called ‘’natural methods’’.

No method of contraception is 100 %
effective - sterilisation offers the best
chance at 99.99 % effectiveness
(depends on the surgical procedures etc.)
requires a trained person and last up to 5
years.
What does it do?
Thicken the cervical mucus, which prevents
sperm from entering the uterus. It also
prevents ovulation to some extend and causes
changes in the uterus and fallopian tubes,
which prevent fertilisation.
IUD
What does it do?
Block s the release of sperm into the vagina.
The spermicide lubricant in the condom also
activates or kills sperm.
Vasectomy
What is it?
A small incision made on both side of the
scrotum to expose the vas deferens which is
then cut tied or clipped.
What does it do?
Blocks the vas deferens in the male so that
sperm cannot travel to the penis with semen.
Sterilisations are permanent methods
and require consent and make sure
patient understand they are irreversible
and need anaesthesia and hospitalisation
Female sterilisation
What is it?
A small plastic device inserted into the uterus
through the cervix. The copper or
progestogen is slowly released in the uterus.
What does it do?
Inactivates the sperm and prevents sperm
migration into the female genital tract. The
IUD also causes changes in the uterus and
fallopian tubes, which prevent fertilisation.
What is it?
Puncture or small incision made to the
abdomen to gain access to the fallopian tubes,
which are then cut, tied or clipped.
Condoms
What is it?
A cylindrical latex sheath worn over the penis
during intercourse.
What does it do?
Blocks the fallopian tubes in the female so
that the eggs produced by the ovaries cannot
unite with the sperm.
13
Process of pregnancy
Pregnancy means having children. It is also the condition of having a developing embryo or foetus
in the body, after union of an ovum (egg from female) and spermatozoon (sperm from male).
Ovulation and sperm production: The ovaries on both sides of a woman’s womb produce ova
(eggs) and the testes of a man produce sperms.
Fertilisation
A woman’s body makes an egg that travels through one of the tubes into the womb. The
father’s body makes a seed (sperm). When he and a woman have sex, his seed travels up into
the womb and meets the woman’s egg. The egg and seed together form a baby that grows
inside the womb.

EMERGENCY CONTRACEPTION
It refers to contraceptive methods that can be used by women in the first few days following
unprotected intercourse for various reasons (rape, condom’s breakage, women forgetting to
take their pills, etc..) so as to prevent an unwanted pregnancy. They are effective and safe for
the majority of women who need them, as well as being simple to use.
Methods for emergency contraception are:
(1) Increased doses of Combined Oral Contraceptives (COC) - ethinylestradiol &
levonorgestrel
- Eugynon 50/ Marnon First dose 2 tablets ......Second dose (12 hours later) 2 tablets
or - Microgynon/ AnNa First dose 4 tablets ......Second dose (12 hours later) 4 tablets
(2) High doses of Progestogen-Only Pills (POP)
- Madonna/ Postinor First dose 1 tablet ...... Second dose (12 hours later) 1 tablet
or- Microlut/ Norgeston First dose 25 tablets ......Second dose (12 hours later) 25 tablets
or- Ovrette
First dose 20 tablets ......Second dose (12 hours later) 20 tablets
(3) Copper-releasing intrauterine devices (IUDs)
- Copper-releasing IUD can be used within 5 days of unprotected intercourse as an
emergency contraceptive. It should be kept in mind that the insertion of an IUD in nulliparous
(having never given birth) women may be painful so pill may be better choice for them. IUDs
should be inserted by the trained staff.

The different contraception methods used in the camps
The chart shows the percentage of different contraception methods used in 8 refugee camps at
the Thai Myanmar border. It is based on the monthly data reported by each camp and compiled by
CCSDPT between January 2003 and June 2003. The camps are Ban Mae Surin, B. Kwai-B.Tractor,
Mae Kong Kha, Mae Ra Ma Luang, Mae La, Umpiem, Nu Poh, Tham Hin, and Ban Don Yang.
As Mae La camp was unable to give data from March to May, data has been calculated based on
averages.
The most popular method used among the camps is injection, which represents 47% of the
contraception methods used. Oral pills are also important with more than 24% of people choosing
this method. Female sterilisation and condoms are both around 11 percent. Condoms are not a very
popular choice of contraception. One of the reasons is that many people are still reluctant to use
them for social reasons. Despite preventing STD’s, HIV and AIDS and being a highly effective
contraception method, many people still associate them wrongly with commercial sex workers.
Vasectomy represents around 5% of contraception methods used. With 0.12% and 0.15% IUD
and Norplant’s are the least common method of contraception. Both require a trained person to
insert and remove them. Norplant and IUD are not available in most refugee camps. Mae La is
one of the few camps that trained health workers to insert Norplant and use IUD.

Norplant
Health Messenger Team in collaboration with PPAT
Norplant is a method of contraception still little used in the Thai border refugee camps. In
this article Khun Pranee, PPAT project nurse officer, presents this contraceptive which has
been used in Mae La camps since 1996.
Why did Mae La Camp decided to run this
training?
What is norplant?
Norplant is an implant contraceptive
contained in a white plastic tube, 4 cm in length
and 0.2 mm in diameter. There are 6 tubes each
one contains a contraceptive hormone. The
hormone is slowly released over a period of time.
The tube cannot travel to any other part of the
body (it is implanted in the arm 6-8 cm above
the elbow).
When did norplant started to be used in Mae
La camp?
The reason Mae La camp decided to run this
training was to give information about Norplant
to the staff in order to distribute it to women
who want to use birth control. Also so the woman
can learn about other methods of contraception
and choose what is the most suitable for them.
How many health workers are being
trained?
There are 10 health workers being trained.
Norplant started to be used in Mae La camp
in 1996 (before PPAT started to work in this
camp by receiving the service from SMRU).
SMRU introduced norplant as a long term
con-traceptive for women who think they have
finished their families but not yet ready for
sterilisation. Infant mortality in the camps and in
Burma remains higher than in Thailand. If a child
dies then there is still option to have another one.
What dose the training involve?
The object of the training are:
1. to give the trainees an understanding of
what Norplant is.
2. To give an understanding of
the positive and negative effects
of Norplant, what should be
avoided when implanting
Norplant in patients etc.
3. How to give information
about Norplant to the patients.
4. How to gather data and give
counseling to the patients.
5. How to prepare the
equipment for Norplant.
6. How to prepare the patient beforeNorplant.
7. Demonstration of how to insert and
remove Norplant.

8. Instructing patients how to take care of
themselves after Norplant
The training lasts 2 days.
What is the most important thing to
remember about Norplant?
The most important thing to remember is to
give the right information to patientS and to
implant Norplant correctly.
What has been your feedback from health
workers about it?
Some patients have experienced some side
effects and want to have it removed. It is
therefore very important to to give very clear
informations to patients to ensure understanding.
According to your experience, would it be
useful to train health workers on Norplant
in other camps?
Yes, it would be really useful to have the
training in other camps.
On average how many women are using it
every year in your camp?
There were 57 women in 2001, 162 women
in 2002, and 50 women in 2003*.(*The figures
are only known for 3 months)
Is Norplant a very popular methods of
contraception?
Norplant is not a very popular method. In
order of preference we can find the following
methods (from the most popular to the least
popular) - injection, birth control pill, condom,
Norplant, female sterilisation, male sterilisation
and IUD.
Do you feel women still need to know more
about it?
Yes, I think women need to know more about
it to be able to distribute the information to their
friends who want to use birth control. They will
then know about another method of
contraception and understand the way it works
It gives them more choice. Norplant lasts for 5
years and they only need to visit health workers
for follow up.

The Suitable Family Planning
Methods According to Women’sHealthHealth
Messenger Team
?
When choosing a method of contraception health workers should always take into account
their client’s health. Contraceptives can sometimes affect women’s health and are not
appropriate if the client suffers from certain health conditions. The following article
will help health workers to choose suitable family planning methods
according to the condition of a woman’s health.
Anaemia
In this condition the patient is pale and weak.
The signs of anaemia include whiteness of finger
nail beds, lower eyelids, palms of the hand. One
of the causes of anaemia is blood loss and other
causes are malaria, worm manifestation, and
nutritional deficiency.
Combined hormonal contraceptives will
decrease the menstrual blood loss that would
increase the severity of anaemia, and are
therefore appropriate. Non-hormonal copper
IUD (Intra-Uterine Device) will increase the
menstrual blood loss, and are not recommended
in this situation. Severe anaemia should be
treated first before a surgical method is used.
Diabetes
Diabetes mellitus occurs when there is more
glucose (sugar) in the blood than normal and the
blood sugar stays at these abnormally high
levels.
Use of hormonal methods in women with
complicated diabetes and/or over the duration
of more than 20 years may increase the risk of
heart and blood vessel complications.
Hypertension
If the blood pressure remains much higher
than normal, the condition is called hypertension
(high blood pressure). It is said to be present
when the blood pressure is 140 systolic (upper
number) or higher and/or 90 diastolic (lower
number).
Combined hormonal contraceptives may
increase the risk of heart and blood vessel
complications with this condition. Progestogen
(Progestin) contraception and IUD are
recommended in this case.
Heart disease
Clients with the following symptoms could
be suffering from heart disease: abnormal
shortness of breath, swelling of ankles and face,
chest pain, palpitation (consciousness of heart
beat), fast or slow pulse and cyanosis (blue
coloration of fingers and lips).
The use of hormonal methods in women with
heart disease may increase the risk of heart and
vessel complications and the use of copper IUD

may increase the risk of endocarditis
(inflammation of the heart). A decision by a
physician is a necessity for the use of all types
of contraceptive in this case.
Pulmonary Tuberculosis and Malaria
(uncomplicated)
Pulmonary Tuberculosis is caused by an
infection from a bacterial bacillus called
Mycobacterium tuberculosis and occasionally by
other mycobacteria. The symptoms of
pulmonary tuberculosis are cough, fever and
weight loss. It will kill the client if treatment is
delayed.
Malaria is a disease caused by infection of
the red blood cells by a protozoal organism called
Plasmodium. Infection sometimes causes acute
and chronic types of fever with or without chills
and rigors, anaemia and enlargement of the
spleen.
abvHk;}uD;jcif; enlargement of the spleen.
Anti-tuberculous and anti-malaria drugs may
reduce the effectiveness of hormonal
contraceptives. If the client is taking this
medication regularly, advise the use of other
methods.
Lumps of all types
All lumps or masses or tumours found
anywhere in human body have the potential to
transform (change) into a stage of cancer at any
time.
The recommended contraceptive method will
depend on the type, nature and location of the
tumour. There are tumours where some
contraceptive methods can be safely used and
there are tumours where specific methods may
not be recommended. Surgical methods are a
safe option in this situation.
Breast Lumps
Mass(es) seen or palpable anywhere on a
woman’s breast should be regarded as malignant
(cancer) unless otherwise proven non-malignant
by a specific test.
The hormonal methods may be used if the
breast lump is benign (not cancer). If the breast
lump is malignant (cancer), the lump growth may
be increased by hormonal methods.
Risk of HIV/AIDS and other STD
The end result of Human Immunodeficiency
Virus (HIV) infection is Acquired
Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Infection
occurs when the blood or body secretions from
a person with HIV infection pass into the body
of another person during unsafe sexual practices
or pregnancy or from transfusion of infected
blood.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs), also
called veneral diseases (VD), are usually spread
by sexual intercourse. Sometimes they are
spread by non-sexual (intravenous drug use)
means. The common symptoms are discharge
or pain in the urethra or vagina, sores and/or
swelling of genitalia, lymph nodes enlargement
in the groin and lower abdominal pain in women.
Use of IUD may increase the risk of pelvic
inflammatory disease. Spermicide may cause
irritation in the vaginal canal which may hasten
HIV/AIDS transmission. Use of condoms is
highly recommended even if the woman is
already using a contraceptive method as it can
prevent transmission of HIV and other sexually
transmitted diseases. Condoms are preventing
transmission of diseases and are very highly

recommended in this situation.
symptoms and the risk of contagion.
Heavy or prolonged menstruation
Liver diseases
The usual menstrual period for an average
woman is 3 to 5 days and the usual monthly
menstrual blood loss is about 40 ml. More than
the said duration could be classified as prolonged
and blood loss much more than 40 ml could be
categorised as heavy.
Combined hormonal contraceptives may
decrease menstrual blood loss, IUD may cause
heavier or prolonged menstruation. Determining
fertile and infertile periods may be difficult when
using natural methods. Additional benefits may
be gained apart from contraception if combined
hormonal methods are used with this condition.
Some liver diseases including acute
inflammation of the liver and long-term liver
disease need to be considered carefully when
using contraception. Most of them are viral
hepatitis and cirrhosis of the liver (chronic liver
disease). The most noticeable feature in this case
is jaundice, which is yellow coloration of the
eyes, skin and mucus membrane (inner aspect
of the mouth).
In this situation, hormonal drugs such as
Oestrogen and Progestogen are unsuitable as
they are eliminated through the liver. Uses of
hormonal contraceptives may over load the
function of the liver leading to liver failure. IUD
and surgical methods are suitable for family
planning in this case.
Abnormal vaginal bleeding
This is any bleeding that occurs outside of
the normal menstrual cycle. Dysfunctional
uterine bleeding is one of the forms of abnormal
uterine bleeding where the cause is difficult to
identify. Hormonal methods may still be used
only if malignancies are ruled out. The risk of
growth of some types of pelvic cancers may be
increased. Surgical methods are one of the most
suitable family planning options in this case.
Abnormal vaginal discharge other than
bleeding
Vulvovaginitis is one of the most common
reasons to attend a gynecological clinic.
Excessive, noticeable discharge is usually vaginal
in origin but, in rare instances, may arise from
the vulva only. Potential causes of abnormal
vaginal discharge include infection of the female
genital tract with Trichomonas, Candida,
Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Herpes simplex or
Syphilis.
Condoms prevent sexually transmitted
diseases. Spermicide, diaphragm and cervical
caps may also prevent sexually transmitted
diseases to some extent. Combining hormonal
contraceptives and condoms will reduce both the
Severe Headache
Headache is a sensation of pain in the head.
The causes of headache are numerous. It could
be due to anaemia, gastro-intestinal tract, cough,
eye problems etc…. When it comes to
contraception it is headaches which may be
caused by vascular diseases that give rise to the
greatest concern.
Hormonal methods may worsen headache
and/or increase the risk of complications. IUD
copper (non-hormonal) type and surgical
methods are suitable in cases of severe
headache.
Nulliparity
Nulliparity means that a woman has never
given birth to a viable infant. She may or may
not be pregnant to be a nulliparous woman.
In nulliparous women the uterus is still small
and the risk of spontaneous expulsion of IUD is
high. Surgical methods are considered
permanent, a woman who has not borne a child
yet is likely to want children in future.

Check list to rule out pregnancy
Family Planning service providers should always rule out pregnancy for people choosing
hormonal methods and IUD. However, a pregnancy test, which can give the clear-cut
answer is not often available or too expensive for the client.
FHI (Family Health International) has designed an easy to use questionnaire that helps
to exclude pregnancy.
If a woman answers YES to at least one question, she can NOT be pregnant and the
provider can give the desired method. On the contrary, when the clients answer NO to all
of these questions, pregnancy cannot be ruled out and the client should await menses or
use a pregnancy test to know her condition.
If the client answers YES to any question,
proceed to the first box directly below the YES column
NO
QUESTION
YES
1. Did you have a baby less than 6 months ago, are you fully
breastfeeding, and had no menstrual period since then?
2. Have you abstained from sexual intercourse since your last
menstrual period?
3. Have you had a baby in the last four weeks?
4. Did your last menstrual period start within the past 7 days?
5.Have you had a miscarriage or abortion in the last 7 days?
6. Have you been using a reliable contraceptive method
consistently and correctly?
Client answered NO
to all of the questions
Client answered YES
to at least one question
Pregnancy cannot be
ruled out
Client is free of signs or
symptoms of pregnancy
Client should await menses
or use pregnancy test
Provide client
with desired method

Helping Clients
to Make the Right Choice
Health Messenger Team in collaboration with PPAT
Communication skill is one of the key factors in counselling sessions for family planning
programmes. In this article we look at how skilful field staff from PPAT (Plan Parenthood
Association of Thailand) provide counselling at Mae La camp.
Counselling has a crucial role in providing
clients with the most appropriate contraception
methods. Each woman has different needs
depending on her health, age medical history, and
personal preferences. Providing good counselling
will increase the efficiency of methods. If a client
feels unsure about the method chosen, if they
haven’t understood properly how the what the
contraceptive works or what can be the side
effects, chances are she will interrupt it or misuse
it. This is why heath workers have to be able to
provide the best counselling.
What is counselling: Counselling means
helping clients to make informed and voluntary
decisions about their individual care. It is a two
way exchange of information that involves
listening to the client’s questions and wishes and
informing them about their options. Counselling
takes into account (is responsive) to each client's
individual situation, values and needs.
What is informed choice: Informed choice
is a voluntary, well considered decision that an
individual makes based on choices, information
and understanding. The individual should make a
free and informed decision about whether or not
she wishes to use a contraception methods and if
so, what she or he wishes to use.
Being able to choose their own method of
contraception is a basic human right. Ultimately
it is the client who must choose her method of
contraception and not the Health Worker. Health
workers have to provide the clearest information
to help the client make the right decision.
•
•
•
•
•
The elements for a good counselling:
Help the client feel at ease
Give a personal counselling adapted to each
person's need
Give accurate information and make sure
the clients understand
Help the clients to take the decision but do
not choose for him/her
Listening to the client’s questions and
remarks
The following methods can help health
workers to provide the right counselling. It is
called in English GATHER methods and it is
based on 6 elements.
1. G REETING the client
2. A SK clients about themselves and listen to
the answer
3. T ELL clients about their choices
4. H ELP the clients choose
5. E XPLAIN what to do
6. R ETURN for follow up

Not all clients need to be counselled in this
order and not all them need the 6 elements. This
method is used and appreciated by many health
workers. In the camp of Mae La, the GATHER
method is being used by Plan Parenthood
Association Thailand (PPAT), a non-profit
organisation working on family planning for the
refugees. AMI team followed project staff Naw
Eh Paw during her counselling session applying
GATHER method.
Client 1. Ma Phi Phi
Age —20 years
Occupation — dependent
She has one child alive about 4 months old
Activity: counselling for receiving
contraceptive injection Depo Provera
GREETING
Naw Eh Paw:
How are you? Hope you are well and
fine. My name is Naw Eh Paw, I’m
working with PPAT. I am responsible for
family planning activities for the refugees
residing in this camp. Please take your
seat and feel free to ask me information
on birth spacing. I am pleased to help
you and your family.
Ma Phi Phi:
Thank you, my sister. This is my second
visit and I came here last week. Now, I
have decided to receive birth spacing
Injection if possible
ASKING/ ASSESSING
Naw Eh Paw:
Well, I am here to help you to choose the
family planning method that is
appropriate for you. I will explain you
more about various methods you can use.
But before I need to know more about
you and what you want to do, may I ask
you a few personal questions.
Ma Phi Phi:
Yes, of course.
Naw Eh Paw:
What is your name?
Ma Phi Phi:
My name is Ma Phi Phi.
Naw Eh Paw:
Where do you live?
Ma Phi Phi:
I live in Nu Po camp.
Naw Eh Paw:
How old are you?
Ma Phi Phi:
I am twenty years old.
This part of their conversation is named as Greeting component of counselling session. It
is to help the clients to feel at ease. Remember that they will need to share with you some
personal information. It will be easier for them to do it if they feel welcome. Therefore
greetings and politeness when clients arrive is a necessary first step.

of these birth spacing methods. Now I
would like to tell you some important
information about various methods you
can use. This will help you to choose the
method that you think is the best for you.
Do you agree to listen to me carefully?
Ma Htan :
Yes, I agree with you.
Naw Eh Paw:
Oh, very good! Thank you for your
attention. There are mainly two methods:
the modern and the natural birth spacing
The above mentioned conversation indicates the ASKING/ ASSESSING component of
counselling procedure for family planning. Asking questions goes together with active listening.
When you ask questions you should:
• Know why the client comes
• Help the client explain personal situation and needs
• Learn what is the client’s knowledge on birth spacing
• Help the client express feelings, fears and misconceptions
•
Show the client that you care
Listening is as important as asking questions. If you ask questions and listen carefully to
the answers you will have a clear understanding of the client’s situation and needs. Assessing
is to help people to be aware of the risks for themselves. Does their sexual life or behaviour
or that of their partner(s) put them at risk of getting or transmitting an STI. Again it is by
asking questions that you can help client to assess this risk. It is difficult to ask direct questions
about client’s sexual life. But indirect questions can help us know if a risk exists.It is also
important to use "open" questions, meaning questions using How? or Why rather than "close"
questions which can be easily anseered by yes or no.

sometimes a few discomforts. For natural
method, you need to avoid sexual
intercourse during the days you can get
pregnant. You can use this method if for
example you do not want to take medicine,
but there are more risks of getting
pregnant. Do you have any questions so
far?
Ma Htan :
No I understand, please carry on.
Naw Eh Paw :
There are several contraception methods
such as the PILS, CONDOMS, IUDs,
INJECTIONS, IMPLANTS AND
STERILISATIONS. But lets start first with
the PILLS. You have to take the pill every
day. In fact there are two types of pills the
COC (Combined Oral Contraceptives) and
POP (Progestin Only Pill). Women who are
breast-feeding more often use the second
one. The pill is very effective. It prevents
the sperms of the man from entering the
womb. With COC you might have a few
discomforts such as nausea, vomiting,
headache and a little weight gain. But it
will progressively disappear after some
time. Do you have any questions? Is there
anything unclear for you? I’m happy to
answer your questions Have you ever
heard of rumours regarding the pill?
Ma Htan :
Well I’m not sure about the pill. I heard of
rumours about the pill..
The above dialogue is about the TELLING section of family planning counselling activity.
First, the provider tells the client the information needs to reach a decision. The information
should first describe briefly the male and female reproductive system and the various methods
available. Every method should not be explained in detail, because it can be very confusing
for the client. Before telling, ask the client what she already knows about contraception and
let the client speak first before telling.
The information should be personalised. It means that the provider adapts the information
given to each client’s needs and situation. For that the provider has to understand what the
client needs to know. There is an easy way to do it:
1. Ask the client the method he likes. Most have a method in mind. It is better to provide
the clients with the method they chose because most probably, they will use it longer and
longer and more effectively. The provider needs to check that the client understands fully
the method, that there is no medical contraindication.
If the client cannot use the method, ask about the reasons for choosing this method, and
discuss with the client about another available method that fits the best with the reasons
of the client’s first choice.
2. If the client has no method in mind, ask what is the most important in family planning
for the client and what the client expects from it. The answers will give an idea about the
client’s needs.

Naw Eh Paw:
What kind of rumours have you heard
about it?
Ma Htan:
Some people say that the pill causes
discomfort and bleeding irregularly
Naw Eh Paw:
Let me explain to you …
HELPING
Naw Eh Paw:
Fine. Do you have any questions? I can
help you if you are not sure about the
method you want to use or if there is
anything you do not understand well.
Ma Htan :
No, I have already decided; I want to take
the pill.
Naw Eh Paw:
It is a very effective birth spacing method.
But the pills also have some disadvantages.
You may have irregular bleeding or
spotting, no monthly bleeding and
occasional headache. You must take one
pill every day, even if you do not have
sex. If you want to change methods or get
pregnant, stop taking pills when you finish
a packet.
Ma Htan :
Well, I understand.
Naw Eh Paw:
Now I need to ask you a few questions
and do a quick examination to check if
everything is normal and that you can use
the pill. Is this fine with you?
Ma Htan :
Yes, please do so.

The above mentioned discussion is the EXPLAINING component of family planning
counselling session. The provider needs to explain clearly the details of the method chosen
by the client. An informed choice means also that the client knows and understands well
everything about the use of the method. This is one of the client’s rights. The following points
should be systematically explained and discussed with the client:
• How the method works and how to use it
• Advantages and disadvantages
• Side effects
• Protection against STIs including HIV/AIDS
contain the hormone progestogen. They
are placed under the skin for slow release
of progestogen to prevent pregnancy. You
need to have a minor operation that is a
small cut in the skin of your inner aspect
of arm to insert and remove the implants.
Do you need to explain more about
implant insertion operation more?
Ma Ku Ku
No, I understand your explanation.
Naw Eh Paw:
Now, I would like to explain more about
implants. During the first months, the
implants may cause irregular bleeding (in
the middle of your cycle) or more days of
monthly bleeding. Or you may have no
bleeding at all. This does not mean
something wrong. These changes will go
away as your body becomes used to
having more progestogen if bleeding is a
problem, we will let you take some drug
along with the implants for a few months.
Ma Ku Ku:
Yes, I will let you know my condition after
insertion of implants and when shall I
come back to your clinic?
RETURNING
Naw Eh Paw:
I will fill out an appointment card for you.
Your next visit to our clinic would be on
9 th July 2004 to check your implant
insertion and please feel free to come any
time if you have problem with these
implants. You have to bring your
appointment card with you at each visit.
Please if you have any problem or
question even before the next visit do
not hesitate to come back here. I will
be happy to help you. Do you have any
question or is there anything you do
not understand?
Ma Ku Ku:
No, thank you very much for your help.

anonymous)

Above conversation is the RETURNING element of family planning counselling session.
The client should feel welcome to return anytime. A client may need to return for the main
following reasons:
• Need more supplies
• Demand more information
• For follow up
• Problems or doubts about the method
• Side effects
Returning client deserve as much attention as the first time. The care provided at return
visits is also important because it helps clients to continue. Return visits are good opportunity
to check if clients are satisfied if they have any problems or concern about side effects.
Providers at the end of the counselling session should systematically explain to the clients
that they can return anytime they feel they need it and for whatever reasons: Questions,
problems. Side effects…
In case the method chosen by the client cannot be provided (e.g. for an IUD insertion or
a sterilisation), the return step should be a referral to a facility which has the capacity to
provide it.

CASE STUDY
Case Study: Kyi Kyi Tan is a 21-year old married woman with one child, aged 18
months. After the birth of her first child, she didn’t want to get pregnant for a while. To
avoid pregnancy the midwife gave her a three-monthly injection, 45 days after her delivery.
But she didn’t understand well what the injection would do, and how the contraception
worked. When her period stopped she became scared. She felt it wasn’t healthy not to have
her monthly bleeding. She decided by herself to stop using the injection and to wait for her
next period. Her next period didn’t come and because she didn’t use any contraception
methods, she became pregnant again during this time. Although she eventually wanted to
have another child, she felt that this pregnancy came too soon. She had no money to deliver
and needed to work on the fields.
When she was four months pregnant she went to see an old lady in the village, who put
a liquid medicine inside her, and four days later she had heavy bleeding.
Now she is using the injectable again, but this time she is happy using it as the midwife
visited her and explained that having no period was safe for her health, and she did not
worry about not having them.
Kyi Kyi’s story illustrates the need to counsel women properly about methods of
contraception. They should be informed clearly what the methods do and told to come back
if they have any
questions. It is
important that
women understand
their contraceptive
methods and feel at
ease to ask any
questions they
might have about
the
methods.
Misconceptions
and lack of
information can
often lead a
woman,
to
discontinue her
contraceptive
method, which then
leads to unwanted
pregnancies.

Counselling with tact
Conselling on family planning can sometime be a sensitive matter. Family planning can
sometimes face resistance from clients. More than ever it is important to counsel with care
and tact. In this article Khun Nan Kyi Win, reproductive health worker for (American Refugee Commitee International) in Umpien camps, shares her 10 years experience on getting
message across.
What kind of difficulties do you come across when counseling on Family Planning in the camp?
Most Karen in this camp come from remote area and their level of education is generally low.
When they choose a method of contraception they often need to come back again. Very often they
don’t come on back or they don’t come on time for their injection for example. Sometimes they do
not take their contraception properly, they would often forget to take their pill for example.
Are their methods of contraception that are less popular than others?
Some people are reluctant to use condoms. They might misunderstand or have misconceptions
about them. Some, for example, they may complain of itchiness or white discharge and think it is
because they use condoms. It is then very important to explain to them that it is not due to the use
of condoms, but to other reasons such as the lack of hygiene. Condoms are the only method of
contraception that protect from STDs.
Condom is the only method that provides contraception and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases including HIV/ AIDS.
I think that women generally don’t refuse to use them if they are explain properly about them,
but it is often the men who are not willing to use them because they don’t find it natural.
Some people still might feel reluctant about using family planning, how do you deal with that?
We first started giving health education for women when they came to attend a tetanus toxoid
vaccination. Women between 15 and 45 year old came and we gave Family planning to women
having more than 4 children. At the beginning they didn’t all accept Family Planning. For example
if we gave family Planning to 10 women, 8 would accept it and 2 would refuse. They often refuse
because they didn’t believe in it. Also they thought that having children was a natural gift and a
blessing from god. In Karen they say children are a precious stone. But then they started having too
many children and they came back and listened to us! We try to explain to them that if they have too
many children they economical situation both economical and in terms of health would become
more and more difficult.
According to your experience do you think people are more easily using Family planning?
Yes I think the number of people coming to get family planning is increasing. People know more
about it and they trust the methods of contraception more and are more ready to use them.
A patient : Ma Naw (not her real name) is a 45 year old woman living in Umpien camp.
‘’In the previous camp I use to live in, there wasn’t any family planning and I never used any
method of contraception. Then I moved to another camp and after I had 5 children I decided to
use a contraception method. A home visitor came and talked to me about three types of contraception: the pill, condoms and the injection. I decided to use the pill, but I didn’t like the side
effect and I stop using it. I have now 11 children and I have started using condoms. My husband
doesn’t complain about it, and really it didn’t make any difference to us. As long as he receive
the condoms, he will use them, but he won’t ask for them. I didn’t feel embarrassed about using
condoms, because at my age I have no special feeling about it. I have had 11 children and I’m
very grateful to be able to use a contraception method. Health education is very useful.’’

Misconceptions
Misconceptions regarding family planning methods are identified and presented in this
article. Knowing about the most common misconceptions will help health and social
workers respond to their clients’ questions.
Misconceptions regarding birth spacing
methods are still common among many women
using family planning and can lead them to refuse
or discontinue their methods of contraception.
By asking about their fears and reservations and
by providing clear explanations, health workers
will help women and couples to make informed
decisions. When possible women should involve
their partners in the counselling, by asking them
to attend the counselling session. The following
article will examine the common fears and
questions women might have.
IUD
Does IUD lead to cancer of the womb?
No, it prevents pregnancy by preventing the
fertilisation of the egg by the sperm. The only
risk is if a woman does not have good hygiene
or has a sexually transmitted disease(s), then
IUD can cause infections such as endometitis
(inflammation of womb) and cervicitis
(inflammation of the neck of the womb).
Can IUD travel inside the body to the heart
or stomach?
No IUD cannot leave the uterus except through
the vagina. It cannot travel around the body as
it stays firmly located inside the womb and its
shape is specifically design to adapt to the shape
of the womb.
Can IUD hurt men’s genital?
No, If your partner can feel the IUD (not just
the strings) during sex, you should see a health
worker to correct the situation, which is not
normal.
Condoms
Are condoms promoting promiscuity?
No, it is only a barrier not to transmit diseases
between partners and to prevent sperm from
getting access to the egg. It can be used as a
contraceptive instrument during sex with your
partner. Married couples all over the world use
condoms.
Do condoms reduce pleasure during sex?
No, some people might have less feeling during
sexual intercourse when they are using condoms.
On the other hand some say that the pleasure is
greater as intercourse lasts longer and they have
no fear of having pregnancy.

Is emergency contraception a form of abortion?
No, it does not displace the embryo, and cannot
end an established pregnancy.

Misconceptions and beliefs
Many misconceptions and beliefs can belong
to a particular ethnic group. Religious or cultural
belief can lead clients to refuse a method of
contraception. It is therefore particularly
important to take these into account while
counselling. Asking what the client knows about
the method and how they feel about it are
important factors in understanding the client. The
following give an example of some of the
misconceptions that belong to particular groups

pubic area can prevent pregnancy

Mon misconception
•
Having many children is a sign of prosperity.
In the Karenni community, when people visit
they greet each other by saying “Hello! How
are you and how many children do you have
now? “
Having many children shows that you are
comfortable.
Prgnancy can be prevented by uterine massage
Tying a ‘’Mae-kyone’’
(black colour string
prepared by spiritual
leader) tied up around
married women belly will
prevent pregnancy.
If you take the pills, the
uterus will become dry
and the woman will lose
her hair and develop skin
rashes.
It is dangerous to have sex
with women who have an
IUD.
Shan misconceptions
•
Men sometimes believe
that they shouldn’t have
sex with a woman who
has been sterilised.

Male Involvement in Family Planning
Aung Than Wai
Men are not involved enough in family planning. Khun Aung Than Wai, a health worker
in Reproductive Health at the Mae Tao clinics, explains why it is important to change this.
Men are naturally placed as the head of a family in our Burmese society. No one will deny that
the head of a family is responsible for all socio-economic and health matters of his unit.
In our Burmese community, most of the leading male family members are dutiful in social and
economic sectors. But in family planning, which is one of the components of reproductive and child
health, men’s involvement is not in a satisfactory state. Family planning is more than birth spacing
and contraceptives, but in this field men are not taking full responsibility for having children after
marriage.
There are many reasons for men taking less responsibility in family planning. Most of the female
family members think that men are not accountable for family planning, that it is women’s responsibility
in general. Men also think that having to earn money for their family, they are not also responsible
for family planning.
To be involve in family planning the head of family must
1. Be interested to learn about family planning
2. Have sufficient time
3. Be able to learn (educational pamphlets and leading role for community
health workers).
Temporary and permanent contraceptive methods are the two most important forms of family
planning. Men have to be part of a mutual agreement when using the calendar (Rhythm) method or
condoms. Apart from these two methods, the rest of contraception is often seen as the woman’s
job. This is not correct. Men should take part in every step of family planning procedures for them
to be fully successful. The weakness and strength of all contraceptive methods available should be
well understood by women as well as men. Male involvement could be increased in family planning
by active participation in all stages.
We have female and male sterilisation as an equal opportunity for a permanent form of
contraception. But female sterilisation is better known than the male version. So vasectomy is less
common in our community. Vasectomy in not well understood by most of the men in our community.
After a vasectomy , they believe that it is not possible to do hard work like:
1. Carpentry, masonry, trishaw driver and agricultural work; and
2. Vasectomy may lead to less sexual activity;
3. Some also think they might not enjoy sexual feeling after a vasectomy.
To change these misconceptions, we have to take time to educate men and find people who
have undergone vasectomy operations and request them to participate in family planning campaigns.
Male health workers should also take part in education and counselling activities. This would help to
increase male involvement in family planning.

Mental Trauma
The following story illustrates a case of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This story
is inspired by testimonies from child soldiers all over the world.
Definition of health and mental trauma:
Definition of health according to World
Health Organization (WHO): “Health is a state
of complete physical, mental, social and spiritual
well-being and not only the absence of disease
or infirmity.” According to this definition, mental
trauma is an essential part of health.
Causes of mental trauma:
There are different causes to have mental
trauma, which can be identified as three
categories;
1. Environmental causes like natural
disasters; flood, earth-quake, droughts, fire outbreak and volcano eruption.
2. Biological causes like injury causing
damage to brain; illness due to cerebral malaria;
heredity disease due to congenital malformation
and aging effecting the brain (Alzheimer’s
disease).
3. Psychosocial causes like using drugs;
for example consumption of alcohol,
amphetamine (yaaba), heroin, cocaine, etc, etc;
social problems like stress at work, death of
loved one, domestic violence, jobless, extreme
poverty and man made traumas .
Psychosocial problems causing Post
Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD):
The word psychosocial refers to the link
between the social environment and the mind of
a person. Post traumatic stress disorder as a
disease, which is usually experienced by the
people after enduring terrifying events. These
events can be caused by man made disasters
such as wars, landmines, torture, displacement,
robbery, accidents, rape and abduction of minors
or natural disasters.
A psychological or metal trauma refers to
deep emotional wounds resulting from the
intensely stressful events. Some people can cope
well with the said traumatic event they
experienced and thus they recover, others
become traumatized and develop symptoms.
Symptoms of PTSD
• Continuous thinking about the terrifying
events;
• Flash back: the person experiences the
events, just as if they were happening
again;
• Nightmares causing sleeplessness;
• Easily getting upset;
• Feeling afraid, anxious or jumpy;
• Difficulty in making relationships;
• Loss of interest in life and in sex;
• Poor concentration and memory;
• Feeling guilt.
It should be noted that traumatized people
usually become exhausted by the symptoms.
The daily memories, flashbacks and nightmares physically wear them out. See a story
of PSTD next page.

Chlld Soldiers - A Global Overview
Throughout the world, thousands of children are used as soldiers in armed conflicts.
Many of them are suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder( PSTD). This
article will help our readers to understand who child soldiers are.
1. What is a child soldier?
•
A child soldier is any child – girl or boy –
under the age of 18 who is part of any kind of
regular or irregular armed force or armed group.
Child soldiers are children who carry or have
carried arms as direct combatants or who are
used as cooks, porters and messengers or for
sexual purposes or forced marriage.
In about 85 countries worldwide, more than
500,000 children under-18 have been recruited
into governmental armed forces and armed
oppositions groups according to the Coalition to
Stop the Use of Child Soldiers. .
It is estimated that one fourth of the world’s
child soldiers are in Asia. In South East Asia
and the Pacific, UNICEF has carried out a study,
interviewing 69 former child soldiers in six
countries in the region.
2. How are children recruited into armed
forces?
There are several scenarios to child recruitment:
•
•
Abduction/forced conscription: child
soldiers are often abducted from their
homes, schools or communities and
forced into combat, whether by
government forces, rebels groups or
paramilitary militias.
Children sometimes want to enter
soldiering to defend their family, home
or ethnic community or to protect them
from harassment from the armed
•
•
•
groups.
Propaganda and ideological
brainwashing can also lure them into the
ranks of armed forces/militias.
In some cases there are no alternatives.
Due to the lack of an educational system,
where children are unable to attend
school and have no opportunity for
vocational training, soldiering may seem
the only option.
Poverty: Families are too poor to provide
their children with food and education.
Children who are forced to fight are
often poor, illiterate and from rural or
otherwise marginalized communities.
Children may feel hopeless for their
future because of rampant poverty and
lack of education. They may feel
compelled to join in order to take care
of their families.
3. Why are children used as soldiers?
Children provide cheap and obedient fighters,
and are more vulnerable, because of their youth
and experience. They are easier to brainwash
into fearless killing and unthinking obedience.
In some areas which are subject to persistent
violent conflict, there is a shortage of “eligible
men or women” so belligerents widen the
recruitment base by using girls and boys.
The proliferation of small guns and light
weaponry makes it possible for very young
children to bear and use arms.

4. What kind of activities are child soldiers
involved in?
Children have been reported to fulfill the
following roles in armed groups:
To fight on the frontline.
To reside in battalion camps or base camps.
If they are too young to carry guns, they are left
in the battalion camps to carry water, watch
livestock, or be assigned to plantations
To be used sometimes as spies or
messengers, sentries, porters, servants
To be used to lay and to clear landmines
"I was in the front line all the time. I used
to be assigned to plant mines in areas the
enemy passed through. They used us for
reconnaissance and other things like that
because if you’re a child the enemy doesn’t
notice you much; nor do the villagers." (Former child soldier in South East Asia)
To be used as sexual slaves: girls, orphans or
unaccompanied girls are especially vulnerable.
They are often sexually exploited, raped or
otherwise abused, subjected to human trafficking
and prostitution, and forced to be wives by other
combatants.
5. Effects on children and on the community
Children are often subjected to brutal
initiations and hard labour, cruel training regimes
and torture.
As a result many children report psychosocial disturbances from nightmares and angry
aggression to control to strongly anti-social
behaviour and substance abuse (drug and
alcohol), both during their involvement in war
and after their return to civilian life.
M i l i t a r y
recruitment
is
harmful to societies
as
a
whole.
Children’s lose
years of schooling
reduce societal,
human
and
e c o n o m i c
development
potentials. Many
child soldiers grow
up physically and
psychologically
scarred and prone
to
violence,
increasing the
danger of future
cycles of conflict
and damaging the
chances
of
peaceful, stable
democracies.

Child Protection
Protection of children is crucial to their survival, health, and well-being. Everyone has a
responsibility to see that children are safe. Individuals, civic groups, governments and the private
sector must help create protective environments for them.
Thanks to the Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), nearly universally ratified
(191 States) children have now internationally recognized human rights.
The CRC is a code of binding obligations for the States towards their children to ensure their
protection. It provides rights to children: all the rights stated in the CRC should be granted to all
persons under 18 years old age without discrimination of any kind. The CRC covers every
aspect of a child’s life, from health and education to social and political rights.
To reinforce the protection mechanism established in the CRC convention two additional
protocols have been established, one focusing especially on child soldier issues:
The Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the
involvement of children in armed conflict (2000) signed by 115 countries and ratified by
63, prohibits governments and armed groups from using children under the age of 18 in conflict;
bans all compulsory recruitment of under 18s; bans voluntary recruitment of under 18s by
armed groups and raises the minimum age and requires strict safeguards for voluntary
recruitment.
