Abstract

Family planning is a way to organize interventions between pregnancies, achieve desired births, avoid unwanted births, control the time of birth in relation to the age of husband and wife, and determine the number of children in the family. Family planning (KB) is one of the most effective ways to improve family resilience, health and safety of mothers, children and women. The aim of this community service activity is to provide understanding to couples of childbearing age (PUS), especially in Purbatua PK Village, about long-term contraceptive methods so that PUS receive information about the impact of large amounts of food and close birth spacing on women's reproductive health. This activity was carried out on Tuesday, April 16 2024. The activity carried out was in the form of counseling to PUS regarding material on long-term contraceptive methods in Sorimanaon Village, Padangsidimpuan Tenggara District. This community service is carried out using lecture methods, discussions, distributing leaflets and questions and answers. The results of this community service were received enthusiastically by the participants as seen from the many couples who asked questions about the material that had been provided. It is recommended that outreach activities about long-term contraceptive methods be carried out more frequently so that PUS can better prepare themselves before having children, know the types of contraception to limit the number of children and the benefits of using MKJP.
