Background: 3-month injectable contraception is one of the family planning (KB) methods that is widely used in Indonesia. However, long-term use is often associated with side effects, one of which is weight gain. This can occur due to hormonal changes that affect body metabolism and appetite. Uncontrolled weight gain can increase the risk of obesity and other metabolic diseases. Therefore, research is needed to determine the relationship between the duration of use of 3-month injectable contraception and weight gain in KB acceptors. Objective: This study aims to analyze the relationship between the duration of use of 3-month injectable contraception and weight gain in KB acceptors . Method: This study used a quantitative method with a cross-sectional design. The number of respondents in this study was 57 3-month injectable contraceptive acceptors selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through weight measurement and interviews using a questionnaire. Data analysis was carried out using the chi-square test to determine the relationship between the duration of use of 3-month injectable contraception and weight gain. Results: The results showed that there was a significant relationship between the duration of use of 3-month injectable contraception and weight gain in KB acceptors. The chi-square test results obtained a p-value = 0.007, which is smaller than the significance level of 0.05. This shows that the longer an acceptor uses a 3-month injection, the greater the likelihood of experiencing weight gain. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between the duration of use of a 3-month injection and weight gain in family planning acceptors . The longer the use of a 3-month injection, the greater the risk of weight gain. Suggestion: Education is needed for family planning acceptors regarding the side effects of a 3-month injection, especially related to weight gain. Health workers are expected to provide assistance in monitoring body weight and provide recommendations for a healthy lifestyle, such as maintaining a diet and exercising regularly. In addition, for acceptors who experience significant weight gain, it is advisable to consult with health workers to consider alternative contraceptive methods that are more appropriate
