AB  - This study analysed the recent changes and patterns of information received about 
      contraceptive methods by contraceptive users in India - an important indicator of 
      quality of care in family planning services. Data were taken from the third and 
      fourth rounds of National Family and Health Surveys (NFHS) conducted in India 
      during 2005-06 and 2015-16. The Method Information Index (MII) was used to 
      capture the information received by respondents on three aspects of contraceptive 
      method use: information about the side-effects of the method, what to do if they 
      experienced any complication from using the method and information received about 
      other methods of contraception. A separate analysis of information received by 
      users about the permanency of sterilization was also carried out. Logistic 
      regression models were applied to assess the independent effects of users' 
      background characteristics and their states and union territories of residence on 
      method information received by them. The value of the MII nearly doubled from 
      about 16% in 2004-05 to 31% in 2015-16, indicating a marked increase in the 
      information received by contraceptive users in India over the period between 
      2005-06 and 2015-16. In addition, the percentage of sterilized women who received 
      information about the permanency of the method also increased, from 67% to 80%, 
      over the period. While considerable progress has been made in the last decade, 
      there is still plenty of scope for improvement in the information received by 
      contraceptive users to advance a voluntary approach to family planning.
