Abstract

Family planning is an effort to measure the desired number and spacing of children. Depo-Provera injection is a way toprevent pregnancy by administering a hormonal injection. The failure of the Depo-Provera contraception method is caused by the acceptor's delay in receiving a re-injection. The accuracy of mothers in receiving the Depo-Provera injection is influenced by the mother's knowledge of the Depo-Provera injection and supported by a good memory. Compliance in receiving the re-injection impacts the effectiveness of the Depo-Provera contraception used by the acceptor. One of the failures of the contraception method in the acceptor is non-compliance or delay in receiving the injection. This study aims to determine the level of knowledge of contraceptive injection, compliancewith the re-injection schedules, and the correlation between the level of knowledge of contraceptive injectionand the re-injection schedules compliance. The type of research was a cross-sectionalstudy with accidental sampling. The estimated sample size was 50 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. The research was conducted by giving questionnaires to acceptors who made repeat visits to the Tanah Abang Sub-District Health Center from November 2019-January 2020. The analytical test used in this study was chi-squareto determine the correlation between the level of knowledge of injecting contraception as the independent variable and compliancewith the re-injection schedulesas the dependent variable.Hypothesis testing was carried out using the chi-squaretest formula with a significance level of the p-valueof 0.05 and one degree of freedom. The chi-squarecalculation of p-value 0.05 isobtained, while the chi-squaretable is0.007. Then, Ho isrejected, and Ha is accepted.It means there is a correlation between the level of knowledge of contraceptive injectionand re-injection schedules compliance
