Bayesian Shared Frailty Models for Time to First Birth of Married Women in Ethiopia: Using EDHS 2016.

To slow the increase in the Ethiopian population, families must be taught how to use contraception, and rural populations must be educated on the necessity of increasing the length of the first birth gap rather than encouraging early marriage. In general, attempts to reduce fertility by raising the age of the first marriage must consider the social and cultural settings in which marriage takes place. On the other hand, the campaign against early marriage should focus on the sociocultural, physiological, and psychological effects, as well as the reduction of reproduction.
