چکیده
Background: Preconception care for men is a relatively new and neglected concept. Preconception care has focused on women, even though there is evidence of the value of preconception care for men. This study aimed to explore men’s perceptions of preconception care.
Methods: This content analysis included 12 married men aged 20-50 years who were selected purposefully to maximize variation. Data were collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews conducted face-to-face or by telephone from September to December 2022 in Ahvaz, Iran. Data were analyzed using the thematic approach described by Braun and Clarke with MAXQDA 2020.
Results: Data analysis revealed 10 subthemes and 4 themes, including 1) lack of knowledge in preconception care, 2) neglected dimension of men’s reproductive health, 3) prerequisites for men’s preconception care, and 4) men’s willingness to integrate male and female’s preconception care. Finally, the main theme emerged was “preconception care for men, an unfelt and unmet need”.
Conclusion: Preconception care for men was a new and interesting concept for the participants. Men experienced multidimensional challenges and needs in preconception care. The results suggest that preconception care for men should be provided to address their specific health needs.
