However, efforts to administer contraceptive services were still dominated by women, because the types of methods available are more aimed at women. On the other hand, in accordance with the diversity of cultures, customs, values and religion in Indonesia, decision making on the choice of contraceptive methods was still dominated by men/husbands, even though the wife's knowledge of contraception was good, if there was no husband's support the wife cannot use contraception. Family planning counseling activities are carried out by Family Planning Field Officers (PLKB) and Health Cadres who come from the community. In addition, the coaching is carried out by health workers from the Sukajadi Health Center.
