A study was designed to investigate reproductive behaviour within the socio-economic and cultural context of local population. A random sample of 120 married women aged 15-45 years having at least one living child was selected from two tehsils of district Faisalabad. It emerged from the study that explanations of reprOductive behaviour were consistent with modern attitude and behaviour towards family life. Women age at marriage, women education and their participation in the decision-making process and the husbands; participation in domestic chores have established their significance in explaining fertility behaviour independent of material circumstances.
