Surveys have shown that men's participation in reproductive health can have a positive impact on the health of women and children from various aspects, including improving the health level of maternal and child health, prevention and reducing sexual communication diseases, and improving the efficiency of contraception and renewal rates.A survey in India shows that the number of family wives who have received prenatal education by her husband has greatly improved the number of prenatal examinations, and the mortality rate of women's perinatal period is significantly reduced (Bhalerao, V.R. Et Al.1984).Moreover, men who have received prenatal education know more about various contraceptive methods, and they are more concerned about the nutritional needs of their spouse during pregnancy (Raju and Leonard (2000).
A survey in Egypt found that the husband who had received consulting services during abortion was more considerate and careless during his wife's recovery (Abdel Tawab et al., 1999).Because a monogamous family neutral transmission disease is usually passed on to women, the participation of men is particularly important in the struggle of preventive transmission of diseases and AIDS.
Studies have shown that the biggest possibility of married women's infectious transmission is the sexual behavior of her husband (hunter et al., 1994; Foreman, 1999).Men's possibility of passing AIDS virus to women through repeated insecure sexual behavior is 8 times that women pass to men (Padian et al., 1997).
The results of the study show that men's participation in reproductive health can improve contraceptive usage, customer satisfaction, contraceptive efficiency, and contraceptive methods.The results of random tests show that the contraceptive rate of housewives that husbands have received contraceptive consultation services are significantly higher than those who have not received consultation (FISEK et al., 1978; Terefe et al., 1993).A random survey recently conducted in China showed that the efficiency of family contraception by her husband's contraceptive consultation was greatly improved (king, waiting, 1998).Several investigations have also shown that the renewal rate of family contraception methods that husbands have received contraceptive consulting services are also high.A study in Madagascar found that her husband accepted housewives with contraceptive consulting services to continue using leather burial methods (Tapsoba et al., 1993).
