Many factors that influence causing anxiety include knowledge and perception. Knowledge is a factor that can affect the mother's mindset and negative perceptions of mothers about 3-month injectable contraceptives, increasing anxiety in dealing with menstrual disorders caused by the use of injectable contraceptives.

This research was conducted from 10 to 18 August 2017 with the method of distributing questionnaires.
