<![CDATA[Antenatal Care (ANC) is a crucial health service during pregnancy for monitoring the condition of the mother and fetus, early detection of risk factors and complications, providing education, and preparing the mother for childbirth. Pregnant women's adherence to ANC visits can be influenced by individual, social, and economic factors. This study aimed to analyze factors associated with ANC visit adherence among pregnant women in the working area of the Plumbon Community Health Center (Puskesmas), Indramayu Regency, in 2026. A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design was employed. The study analyzed data from 157 pregnant women. The variables analyzed included age, education, occupation, income, gestational age, knowledge, family support, and ANC visit adherence. Bivariate analysis was conducted using the Chi-Square test with α=0.05. The results showed that 92 respondents (58.6%) were adherent, while 65 respondents (41.4%) were non-adherent. Significant associations were found between ANC adherence and age (p=0.018), income (p=0.008), knowledge (p=0.003), and family support (p=0.012). No significant associations were found between ANC adherence and education (p=0.086), occupation (p=0.992), or gestational age (p=0.519). The findings highlight the need to strengthen ANC education and family involvement to improve adherence to ANC visits among pregnant women.]]>
