Unintended pregnancies are widely known as social and financial burdens in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). Therefore, we aim to examine whether unmet contraceptive needs cause unintended pregnancies in Indonesia in a cross-sectional study using the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS). In the bivariate analysis, we selected all variables for model building, except for employment status. In multivariate analysis, we found that unmet contraceptive needs posed a 1.3-fold higher risk for unintended pregnancies (CI 1.16-1.47) than those with met needs. Focusing on unmet contraceptive needs could reduce the prevalence of unintended pregnancies
