Results of the Community-Based Peer Monitoring 11 Availability of Family Planning and Reproductive Health Commodities during the Lockdowns and Quarantines In terms of family planning, there are some interviewees who acknowledged use of family planning commodities/methods during lockdown, these include using condoms, IUD, injectable/depo, pills, calendar method, and ligation. However, most of the women with disability interviewees from NCR and Region VII, and Region X specified that they do not use reproductive commodities as they are single or do not have partners. The reason for not using is that interviewees are either in their past reproductive age (menopausal stage) or too young to use them. Some interviewees said that they would need a doctor’s prescription before using said reproductive commodities. Some of the reasons for not being able to obtain reproductive commodities are also due to the loss of income wherein women with disabilities would rather buy basic needs than contraceptives. According to one of the interviewees, reproductive commodities are difficult to obtain from barangay health centers as it is by scheduled. Access is also affected by current quarantine measures in place. As stated by one interviewee: “ Hindi po madaling makakuha (implanon) kasi per schedule po yung bigay at nitong linggo lang po ay namaga ang implant ko at pumunta ako sa health center, at ang sabi po dun sa akin ay baka imagination ko lang kaya pinauwi na din po ako, at hindi man lang chineck-up. [It is not easy to obtain implants (implanon). You have to get it at scheduled times. Just this week, I experienced swelling at the implantation site. I went to the health center and was told it was just my imagination and I was sent home.”]
