After six month intervention the UIE of both group still considered high, 391,00(µg/L) (5,00-603,0) and 357,00(µg/L) (37,00-611,0) and significant difference, the TSH of both group decreased 1,63(0,81-9,29) and 1,85(0,7-11,14) but no significant difference.</p><p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> The impact of contraceptives after iodine supplementation in research area not cause difference significant to iodine status ofboth group.</p> <p>Keywords: contraceptives,iodine supplementation, iodine status, childbearing age women</p>
