Description
Rifyal Muhamad, Anis Widyasari, Diannisa Sangun, and Fitriana Ekawati surveyed men's role in care before pregnancy in Indonesia in 2026. Such preconception care aims to improve a woman's health before pregnancy, and it works best when the partner takes part. Male involvement in the country is rare and little studied.
One hundred men at three primary care centers in the Bantul region answered the survey in 2024. Involvement was high in forty-six percent, moderate in twenty-eight, and low in twenty-six. Men who knew more took part more. Warm attitudes and good talk with a spouse also tracked with engagement. Time pressure, money limits, and cultural barriers held some men back.
