In this paper, some Socio- economic and demographic factors affecting contraceptive use are investigated. These factors are introduced on individual basis first in bivariate analysis , then collectively in Multivariate analysis, Some of these factors are categorical ( qualitative ) such as : urbanization , region , age group , educatio'n status , and work status while other factors are quantitative such as : duration of marriage in years, total number of children alive and dead , number of boys dead , and number of girls dead . Naturally , each type of data has a suitable methodology . Chi square and T-test are used in bivariate analysis and Logistic regression is used in multivariate analysis . Rural Upper Egypt is isolated for further analysis since a high percentage of those ever married women who never used a contraceptive method (45.1%) belongs to this region . The characteristics of those ever married women who never used a contraceptive method are analyzed . On the basis of the main results some policy implications are suggested.
