By James Muonwa THE introduction of a new injectable female contraceptive known as Sayana Press in Zimbabwe is giving women expanded family planning options. Sayana Press, which effectively prevents pregnancy, was recently piloted in two provinces, but will soon be rolled out to all the country’s 10 provinces. Zimbabwe National Family Planning Council (ZNFPC) Mashonaland West spokesperson, Ansetus Dongo said adoption of Sayana Press has brought convenience to women of child-bearing age as they can now choose long-lasting contraceptives from an enlarged catalogue, which includes the intrauterine devices. “We are excited to be introducing this new female contraceptive which can be self-administered by users.
