The level of iron-folic acid supplementation compliance was low. Attending antenatal care training and starting to take iron-folic acid pills early in the first trimester were both factors associated with iron-folic acid supplementation compliance. Health care and health extension workers should emphasize and monitor the iron pill-taking habits of pregnant women in home-to-home visits.
