Abstract

An essential component of family planning and reproductive health is the use of contraceptives. By controlling the number and spacing of births, spouses may improve the welfare of their families by selecting the appropriate method of contraception. The purpose of this study is to ascertain if implant contraceptive use in the Posi-Posi Community Health Center Working Area of Morotai Regency in 2025 is correlated with spouse support. This study employs a cross-sectional, quantitative research design with a sample of 20 respondents who accept implant contraception. A questionnaire measuring device with a p-value <α value = 0.05 was employed for data analysis utilizing the Chi Square statistical test. According to the study's findings, 13 respondents utilized implants, and 20 respondents received assistance from their husbands (p.value = 0.000). The usage of implant contraceptives was shown to be significantly correlated with the husband's support. It is required of midwives to educate family planning acceptors so they may make informed decisions about the contraceptives that best fit their requirements.
