of contraception. Meanwhile, higher risk of contraceptive switching among women

who intended to limit births was not expected and might be caused by the fact that

women were still in search of the most suitable contraceptive method to limit births.

This is the case of women who already had two or three children, had higher risk of

switching contraception and were expected to switch to more eective contraceptive

methods. Lower risk of switching contraception among older women was expected

as they were required to prevent unwanted pregnancies by using more eective

contraceptive methods.

Meanwhile, the signicance of sociocultural factors in contraceptive switching,

reveals that higher education and access to family planning information through the

internet also enables women to knowingly switch to the contraceptive method they

want. Furthermore, women economic situation may also increase women’s access to

more eective and suitable contraceptive methods.

5. Conclusion

The results of this study show that economic factors aect contraceptive switching in

Indonesia even after controlling for demographic and sociocultural factors. It implies

the need to formulate and implement suitable family planning policies and strategies,

in particular the provision of accessible information, education and communication

activities, including social media as well as the provision of aordable family

planning services for safe contraceptive switching, in order to manage contraceptive

switching among the economically, socially, and culturally beer-o and among

demographically at risk women in order to prevent unwanted births.
