The study review that the attitudes towards maternal care family planning among husbands
were favourable. But their knowledge about above subjects was poor. It was noted that the
knowledge of husbands in rural sector were poor that the urban sector, in most of the factors
considered in the study. As such their behaviours related to maternal care and family
planning will not be appropriate. Lack of proper sources of information was the main cause
of poor knowledge. It was highlighted that firends were the main source of information. But
there desire is to get information from mass media, health personnel, and books. Those
husbands also suggested that reproductive health should be included in to the school
curriculam as a subject.
