This study used a quantitative method with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 85 respondents selected using total sampling technique. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using the Fisher Exact Test. The results showed that most respondents had low knowledge levels, totaling 39 respondents (45.9%), and most respondents did not choose IUD contraception, totaling 84 respondents (98.8%). The analysis result obtained p = 0.11 (p > 0.05), indicating that there was no significant relationship between mothers’ knowledge level about IUD contraception and the selection of IUD contraception.
