Through scientific reproductive research everyplace the years, man has evolved knowledge of putting consideration and calculation to population by means of family planning because if this is not in place, man may end up in killing and eating each other as a result of over population in the absence of fitted resources.Family planning is the process of having children by choice and not by adventure that is determining when to have children and the use of birth control and other techniques to follow through such plans.

Also, if additional children are desired after a child is born it is healthier for the mother and the child to wait at least 2years after the previous birth before attempting to conceive (but not more than than 5years).After a miscarriage or abortion, it is healthier to wait for at least 6 months (Delano G. 1990).
