The results allow us to affirm that the level of knowledge about contraception possessed by medical students does not condition the preference or frequency of use of the double protection method. Regarding attitudes, these do not influence the use of double contraceptive protection; These results are maintained in all semesters of the study participants. While the practices on contraception and Sexually Transmitted Infection of first-semester medical students determine the preference or frequency of use of the double protection method. These results are not presented in the sixth and tenth semesters. Therefore, it can be concluded that knowledge and attitudes do not influence the use of double protection, while practices determine the preference or frequency of use of double contraceptive protection in first-semester students, but not in students. sixth semester and tenth semester.
