<![CDATA[Background: Population control through family planning (KB) programs is crucial in improving the community's quality of life and women's reproductive health. A study on the prevalence of contraceptive use in Indonesia revealed that short-term contraceptive methods, particularly injectables, are the most commonly chosen by users. Various factors, including age, education level, employment status, and place of residence, influence this preference.Method: This study uses a quantitative descriptive method with a cross-sectional design to analyze the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (SKI) data, focusing on the reproductive health component and using a sample of 70,649 women of childbearing age.Results: This study's results show that all variables that affect the use of contraceptives in women of childbearing age have a significant relationship with outcomes: age (p-value = 0.000), education (p-value = 0.000), occupation (p-value = 0.000), and residence (p-value = 0.000).Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between all the factors studied and the choice of contraceptives in women of childbearing age in Indonesia. To increase the awareness of women of childbearing age in the use of contraceptives, the government needs to raise friendly, informative, and educational services, providing KIE to people experiencing poverty and those living in rural areas as an effort to increase public knowledge about family planning and improve reproductive health education and access to adolescent-friendly contraceptives to support adolescent health and welfare.]]>
