Abstract

Reproductive health is essential for individuals, couples, families, and societies, encompassing physical, mental, and social well-being related to the reproductive system. Contraceptive use plays a crucial role in addressing reproductive health issues, including unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections. Despite advancements, challenges persist in ensuring universal access to modern contraception, particularly in low-resource settings like Indonesia. This descriptive study analyzes the utilization of modern family planning methods among couples of reproductive ages in Indonesia, using secondary data from the Health Statistics Profile Volume 7 of 2023 published by the Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS) of Indonesia. The results show that Rural areas have a slightly higher percentage of modern contraceptive users compared to urban areas, while the highest percentage of modern contraceptive users is among couples with primary school education. The lowest percentage is among those with university education level. The age group with the highest percentage of modern contraceptive users is the 35-39 age group, while the lowest percentage is observed among the 45-49 age group. The highest percentage of modern contraceptive users is observed in quintile 1, while the lowest percentage is observed in quintile 5.
