Abstract

Unmet need family planning is a group of women who do not want to have more children or want to spacing their pregnancies for up to 24 months but do not use contraceptives to prevent pregnancy. Unmet need for family planning is a multidimensional problem because it is influenced by various factors. This study aims to determine the relationship between the incidence of unmet need for family planning with unwanted pregnancy. This type of research is an analytic survey with a cross sectional design. The sample in this study was 100 fertile age couples. The results showed that there were 50 people (90.9%) who became pregnant because they did not use contraceptives and they describe it as unwanted pregnancy. The results showed that unmet need for family planning was related to unwanted pregnancy (p = 0.000).
