This study aimed to assess the knowledge attitude and practice of contraceptive use among women of reproductive age[15- 49yrs] living with HIV in Ibadan Nigeria. A facility-based cross-sectional study was used with the sample size of 469 sexually active WLHIV. The inclusion criteria were WLHIV aged between 18-49, who asserted being fecund and sexually active. An adopted questionnaire was used to collect data and the data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) windows version 22 and statistical significance was set at p <0.05.Among women living with (n=469), 96.6%(453) have a good knowledge of contraceptive and 3.4%(16) have poor knowledge of contraceptive methods, 257(55%) have positive attitude while 212(45%) have negative attitude towards the use of contraceptive.70.4% used contraceptive with 29.6% unmet needs and 28.6 % of the participants are making use of more than 1 methods of contraceptive. The results revealed significant association between payment for services (p=0.019, OR=8.616 95% CI (1.429,51.982), Partner not providing food (p=0.002,OR= 0.2169 95% CI 0.083,0.0564), distance to health facility (p=0.016 OR=3.576 95% CI (1.270,10.069) and previous reaction to contraceptive (p=0.000 OR=69.945 95% CI(9.65,506.73).Based on the findings it was asserted that contraceptive use among WLHIV was found high with moderate positive attitude to contraceptive use and the knowledge about contraceptive use is equally high, however there is need for the healthcare givers to undertake continuous sensitization and counselling services on contraceptive use for WLHIV. There is need to strengthen integration of family planning into activities of Antiretroviral therapy (ART) clinics in order to live a healthy sexual life and increase their productivity.
