Family planning methods are generally considered as women’s responsibility in India. The volumes of research done so far in the family planning methods and reproductive behaviors have kept women at the center of the matter. Consequently, the research on the men’s perspective on the same is generally being neglected. The present study intends to address intention of fertility stopping or fertility limiting and contraception behaviors and their associated factors among currently married men aged 20-49 years in India who had at least one living child. The fourth round of the National Family Health Survey in 2015-2016 was used to achieve the study objectives. Descriptive statistics and binary and multinomial logistic regression models were applied to more than 48,000 men who met the requirement. The findings of the analysis indicate that more than three-fourths currently married men did not want another child, and the fertility stopping intention significantly varies by demographics (i.e., men’s age, number of children, and sex composition of children), socio-economic characteristics, residence, geographic region, and religion of the respondents together with type of caste and social media exposure. The men’s fertility stopping intention was also linked with geographic region, types of religion and castes, and exposure of social media. Result further reveals that only <30% of men who did not want to have another child were using a contraceptive method at the time survey. Among users, female sterilization was the most popular method among married couples in India. Demographic factors, socio-economic characteristics, region and culture, and exposure of social media were all associated with use or not-using and use of a specific conceptive method. Overall, the findings suggest men’s fertility stopping intention and their use of contraception are complicated, and it needs to consider men as a target group in fertility regulation interventions. The reproductive health programs aiming to increase uptake of modern contraceptives by sexually active men in India should consider the importance of sex education and ensure access to mass media.

RESUMOObjetivo: analisar o acesso da população masculina aos métodos de planejamento familiar. Método: trata-se de estudo bibliográfico, descritivo, de revisão integrativa, no período de maio de 2018, realizando-se buscas de artigos nos últimos 10 anos, nas bases de dados PUBMED/MEDLINE, Cochrane, CINAHL, Web of Science e na Biblioteca Virtual SciELO, apresentando-se os dados em figuras. Consideraram-se as categorias temáticas que emergiram da Técnica de Análise de Conteúdo após a análise dos artigos. Resultados: identificaram-se 1725 artigos, selecionando-se 37, que evidenciaram o aumento da participação masculina por meio da vasectomia e da decisão compartilhada. Constatou-se que, a baixa oferta de serviço e o baixo nível de orientação por parte dos usuários configuram-se como principais fatores que implicam negativamente a participação do homem nas ações de planejamento familiar. Conclusão: revelaram-se barreiras na análise das publicações e no acesso de homens ao planejamento familiar relacionadas tanto pela pouca oferta de serviços e métodos, como pela desinformação.

Method: this is a descriptive, descriptive, integrative review study, in the period of May, 2018, searching for articles in the last 10 years, in the databases PUBMED / MEDLINE, Cochrane, CINAHL, Web of Science and in the SciELO Virtual Library, presenting the data in figures. We considered the thematic categories that emerged from the Content Analysis Technique after analyzing the articles. Results: 1725 articles were identified, selecting 37, which showed an increase in male participation through vasectomy and the shared decision. It was verified that the low service offer and the low level of orientation on the part of the users are the main factors that imply the participation of the man in the family planning actions. Conclusion: barriers have emerged in the analysis of publications and in the access of men to family planning related to both the poor supply of services and methods, as well as disinformation.

This study sought to examine the extent of male partners’ participation in family planning in Tarime District, Tanzania. The study adapted a mixed research design to generate data through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions and questionnaires. The instruments were employed to 312 respondents. The analysis was done using descriptive statistics and thematic approach. The major findings indicated that men were the major decision makers within the household because in many situations, they owned the family income and they were the breadwinners. Study participants had different perceptions of family planning methods but generally, fear of side effects was found to be the major hindrance to enhanced use of family planning methods. Furthermore, some people associated the use of family planning with unfaithfulness or promiscuity. The study recommends that it is important to consider the multiplicity of social realities in the efforts to improve the acceptability of the modern family planning services. In addition, efforts need to be intensified to encourage partner communication and engagement in order to improve the family planning practices. Future family planning programs should look at addressing underlying social norms leading to gender inequality and lack of joint decision-making. Finally, family planning programs should encourage communication and joint decision-making among couples in households.
