The uncontrolled growth of population this century has posed a huge dilemma and has brought with it irreversible damages to all aspects of life -including the environment that people live in and the health and welfare of the family. Keeping in mind that if the economic, societal and cultural factors do not expand to keep in line with the growth of population, then this population growth will definitely have a negative impact on the well being of the entire society. Whereas 150 years ago, the population of the world was a mere 500,000,000 people, at the present time, there are currently over 6,000,000,000 people in habiting the planet Earth and this number is on the increase as can be seen by the current growth of population of the world. We must also keep in mind that 90%of this increase has taken place with in the non-Industrialized countries of the world. Iran is also one of those countries in the category of those whose population growth has led to a change within the society. Due to improvement of the state of health and medicine at the present time in comparison to the past, the number of deaths and mortalities especially the death and mortality rate amongst children has dropped. However, the number of births within the country has also gone up. In the census of 1966, the population of Iran was close to 26,000,000, however during the census of 1986–meaning during the span of twenty years -this number had almost doubled and the population reached close to 50,000,000. Keeping this increase in mind, it can be stated that by the year 2021, the population of Iran may well be 100,000,000. In addition, according to the statistics of the median age of the population taken from the various indicators of the growth and planning of families within the Islamic Republic of Iran that were gathered in the month of Tir , 1997, 36.7% of the population of Iran were under the age of 15. It is clear that the securing of food resources, work, residence, health, ways to spend free time, education, etc... for a population that is on the increase is one of the most essential issues in the path of expanding the economic situation and in maintaining the society. In their responsibility as assistants in helping in family planning within the country (of Iran), in addition
to the above mentioned opinions, the Ministry of Health has also strived to present the outlook in relation to population control. Both the mothers and their children –are two groups that face more of the societal pressures, it was necessary to go forth in the correct manner (in educating others) to help prevent the death of these individuals. Thus, following in the direction of other political developments that have been taking place with the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, from the year 1989, population control was included as one of the principal programs of the Ministry of Health.
