family planning
Reproductive timing decisions
Family planning is the practice of controlling the number and timing of children through contraception, fertility treatments, or abstinence.
The term often serves as a neutral or euphemistic way to discuss birth control: a family planning clinic, access to family planning services.
It encompasses both preventing pregnancy and, less commonly, pursuing it.
