Our study found a positive association between father's involvement in maternal health and factors such as paternal education level, age, income level and father's attitude. Fathers' antenatal involvement was associated with paternal age and income level, while their perinatal involvement was associated with paternal age and education level. Our study on father's attitude toward presence at time of birth showed 83.8% compliance. Similarly, there was 67.1% compliance for presence during antenatal checkups.
