Background: Reproductive health issues need to be considered by various parties. The low utilization of adolescent health services still becomes a key issue. The availability of services and the need to access information cannot increase access if adolescents are still experiencing various challenges. This study aims to determine the factors affecting access to reproductive health information. Methods: This observational research used a cross-sectional approach. The population was all adolescents in Kebumen district determined with proportional random sampling technique with a total of 560 samples. The data were then analyzed using univariate analysis to determine the percentage, bivariate analysis, and multivariate analysis of logistic regression test with 95%CI.Results: the results of the multivariate analysis show that there is a relationship between cognitive access barriers, gender, type of household, psychosocial access to reproductive health information with a p-value of <0.05. Conclusion: adolescent health information should be conveyed intensively through the internet, especially mass media and social media.
