Survival curves depicting first menstrual resumption, sexual resumption and use of postpartum family planning among postpartum women in the Mfantseman municipal. Source: Field data 2014. The X-axis represents the months since delivery, whilst the Y-axis represents the survival probabilities. The red, blue and green line graphs represent the time of resumption of menses, time of postpartum family planning (PPFP) use and time of resumption of sexual following delivery respectively. The figure shows that postpartum family planning use by 50% of the women was at 2.7 months postpartum. This was 0.6 and 3.6 months prior to resumption of sexual relations and menses respectively
