Introduction: Despite declining birth rates and improvements in maternal health care, the number of unwanted pregnancies and unwanted births in Turkiye remains high. The aim of this study was to determine women’s attitudes and preferences regarding family planning and the factors influencing them in the postpartum period. Method: A descriptive and correlational study was carried out. Data were collected using a personal information form and the Family Planning Attitude Scale in the online environment. Results: According to the results of this study, the number of women who did not receive family planning counseling during pregnancy (42.6%) and the postpartum period (36.9%) was considerably high. Women’s family planning attitudes change positively when they move from the east to the west of Turkiye. Discussion: According to the results of the study, it was observed that a person’s education, economic status, and cultural values are effective in family planning method selection and family planning attitude.
