Abstract

Long-Term Contraceptive Methods (LCMs) are contraceptives that can be used long term. Low interest in using LCMs by women of childbearing age is closely related to several factors, such as age, education, parity, access to services, availability of devices, cost, and support. The purpose of this study was to analyze factors influencing LCM contraceptive choice based on age, education, parity, access to services, availability of LCMs, cost, and husband's support in the Tlogosari Community Health Center working area. This study uses a correlational quantitative design. The population in this study consists of all family planning acceptors in the Tlogosari Public Health Center Work Area, totaling 6,013 people. The sample size in this study is 98 people, selected through consecutive sampling. Data was collected using questionnaires. The data was analyzed with Binary Logistic Regression using SPSS. The analysis showed that most respondents were aged 20-35 years (46.9%), junior high school graduates (48%), and multiparous (51.0%). Husband support was in the moderate category (59.2%). Access to services was affordable (93.9%). Contraceptives were available (100%), contraceptive costs were free (100%), and non-long-term contraceptives were used (66.3%). Statistical test results show that Age, Parity, Education, and Husband's Support are related to the Choice of Long-Term Contraceptive Methods in the Work Area of Tlogosari Health Center. Meanwhile, Service Access, availability of tools, and cost are not related to the Choice of Long-Term Contraceptive Methods in the Work Area of Tlogosari Health Center. The variable with the greatest influence on the low selection of long-term contraceptives is education. The hypothesis in this study is accepted and proven statistically. The conclusion of this study is that the factors for choosing MKJP are age, parity, education, and husband’s support. It is recommended that respondents use long-term contraception because it is very practical and effective for delaying pregnancy.
