The resistance of women at childbearing age to contraceptive methods is an obstacle to improving the health of mothers and children. The mother's socio-demographic profile should be taken into account to increase the rate of contraceptive method use.The present correlational prospective study involved 2373 women of childbearing age in the period from 01 to 31 December 2020. The data analysis consisted of crossing the socio-demographic characteristics of the respondents and the use of contraception.This study shows that 79.3% of women surveyed resist the use of contraceptive methods. The age, the living environment, the level of education, the standard of living of the household, the main occupation, the birth interval, the number of children born and the awareness of contraception, are statistically associated with resistance to the use of contraceptive methods.Thus, the socio-demographic profile of women at reproductive age is an indicator of resistance to the use of contraceptive methods.
