Options of Long-Term Contraceptive Methods in Married Women in South Sulawesi (Analysis of Idhs 2017)

Abstract

The long-term contraceptive method is an effective method for preventing pregnancies. However, users of long-term contraceptive methods are considerably lower compared to those of non-long-term contraceptive methods in South Sulawesi. The research objective was to examine the determinants of choosing long-term contraceptive methods in South Sulawesi. This study used data from the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey by analyzing 583 married women who were using contraception in South Sulawesi. A descriptive analysis was employed to estimate the prevalence of long-term contraceptive methods. Meanwhile, the Chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were used to identify the determinants of choosing long-term contraceptive methods. The results from the descriptive analysis showed about 18.9% of the sampled married women were long-term contraception users, among those were implant users (10.2%). More married women with higher education and more parity chose to use it. The better the knowledge about the type of contraception, the greater the chance to use long-term contraceptive methods. Women who were told about side effects, sources of government services, and free fees were significantly influenced to use long-term contraception. Women who received staff visits and visited health facilities were less likely to choose the long-term methods. This implies that contact with field oMKJPlong-term contraceptive methodslong-term contraceptive methodsfficers has not been able to motivate prospective acceptors to use . Improved education and knowledge, especially about types of contraception and side effects, are needed to increase women’s long-term contraception use alongside. The quality of services at free/subsidized costs also needs to be improved, and training should be given for capacity building, especially in communication skills, to family planning field officers.

“…The safety of the method, efficacy, return of fertility are not the only considerations influencing contraceptive choice, but ease of use, convenience, the impact on sexual relationships, as well as spousal support and religious beliefs also play a role in contraceptive selection. [15] A research on contraceptive use conducted by Agustini in Puger Jember in 2015 found that contraceptive use is related to age, the number of living children, maternal education, the location of family planning services, and the cost of contraception, but it is not related to the desired number of children or family income [7]., [16].…”
