  • India's population crossed 1.2 billion in May 2011; the growth rate was less than 2% (20/1000/year) as per 2011 census.
  • Natural methods include periodic abstinence, withdrawal, and lactational amenorrhea (effective up to 6 months post-parturition).
  • Condoms ('Nirodh') protect against both conception and STIs/AIDS.

  • MTP = Intentional termination of pregnancy before full term; also called induced abortion.
  • India legalised MTP in 1971; MTP Amendment Act, 2017 further regulates it.
