Assessment of men involvement in family planning services use and associated factors in rural Ghana.

Background: In low-and-middle income countries (LMICs) less attention is paid to men's involvement in Family Planning (FP) programs where public health officials have advocated the involvement of men as a strategy for addressing the dismal performance of FP programs. The study assessed the involvement of men in FP use and the factors which promote or hinder the uptake of FP services among partners in a rural setting of northern Ghana.

Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was used to collect data from 200 respondents.
