Results and Discussion: The results showed that family support at women of fertile age was in the poor category of 66 people (67.3%), the implementation of BSE conducted by women of fertile age was in the less category as many as 65 people (66.3%). There is a family support relationship with the implementation of BSE on women of fertile age with a p-value of 0,000 with a correlation coefficient of 0.864.
