Globally, pregnant women in sub-Saharan Africa are more affected by anemia. Therefore, this study examined both the coverage and demographic, socioeconomic, and women empowerment-related factors associated with theutilization of deworming medication among pregnant married women in sub-Saharan Africa. We used data from the most recent Demographic and Health Surveys of 26 countries in sub-Saharan Africa conducted between 2010 and 2019. Using Stata version-14 software, analysis was done on 168,910 pregnant married women. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the factors associated with theutilization of deworming medication. The results were presented using adjusted odds ratios (aORs) at 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The pooled results showed that about 50.7% (95% CI 48.2-53.3%) of pregnant married women in the studied countries took deworming medications, and this varied fre visits could be considered to increase deworming uptake among pregnant married women.

Moreover, providing more attention to adolescents or young pregnant women and increasing the number of antenatal care visits could be considered to increase deworming uptake among pregnant married women.
