Abstract

Background: Indonesia is still facing population growth challenges, as indicated by the increasing total fertility rate (TFR). Family planning programs play an important role in controlling population growth, with injectable contraceptives being the most widely used method. However, limited knowledge among injectable contraceptive acceptors may contribute to prolonged use and potential health risks. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the relationship between the knowledge of injectable contraceptive acceptors and the duration of injectable contraceptive use at Batununggal Community Health Center, Bandung.
Methods: This study employed a cross-sectional design involving 65 injectable contraceptive acceptors, selected using accidental sampling, and data were analyzed using the chi-square test.
Results: Results showed that 38.8% of injectable contraceptive acceptors had poor knowledge, and 47.7% used contraceptives for extended periods. There was a statistically significant relationship between knowledge and duration of injectable contraceptive use (p < 0.001).
Conclusion: The study concludes that poor knowledge is associated with prolonged use of injectable contraceptives. Recommendations include providing comprehensive education about hormonal contraception, particularly injectable contraceptives, to minimize long-term usage risks and promote safer contraceptive practices among women of reproductive age
