Unintended pregnancy among female sex workers (FSW) is a pressing reproductive health concern attributable to risky sexual behaviors, healthcare inequities and poor negotiation powers with male sex partners. However, evidence is scarce on the prevalence and determinants of unintended pregnancies among FSW, which is crucial for enhancing reproductive healthcare. This analysis aims to measure the prevalence of lifetime unintended pregnancies and their associated factors.
