Introduction: Violence against women is a global issue with serious consequences for mental, physical, and reproductive health. In Peru, 53.8% of women have experienced psychological, physical, or sexual violence in the past year, highlighting the need to study this phenomenon and its causes. Objective: To explore the association between the use of contraceptive methods and forms of violence (physical, psychological, and sexual) affecting indigenous women of reproductive age. Method: An analytical cross-sectional observational study using secondary data from the 2020 Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES). Results: The study included 2,676 women. Most participants (86.59%) were aged between 27 and 49 years, and 88% were married or living with their partner. Regarding educational level, 23% had completed only primary education. The majority identified as Quechua (87.4%), belonged to the lowest wealth quintile (85.9%), and were affiliated with SIS (86.56%). The adjusted analysis showed that the use of contraceptive methods was associated with a 1.02 times higher prevalence of overall violence compared to non-use, but this association was not statistically significant (PR=1.02, 95% CI=0.87-1.20, p=0.819). Additionally, it was found that the use of contraceptive methods was associated with a 50% lower prevalence of sexual violence (PR=0.50, 95% CI=0.25-1.00, p=0.050). Conclusions: The findings indicate no significant association between the use of contraceptive methods and overall violence among Quechua, Aymara, or Amazonian women. However, it was observed that contraceptive users had a lower likelihood of experiencing sexual violence.
