Summary, etc. Abstract:<br/><br/>Background. Globally, poor male participation in antenatal care (ANC) and reproductive health issues is still a challenge towards improvement of maternal and child health. Low male involvement in maternal health care services results in low utilization of ANC and health facility delivery leading to increased tendency of maternal morbidity and mortality: The aim of this study was to assess the social demographic and social cultural factors contributing to poor male involvement in ANC at Nyamagana district.<br/><br/> Methodology: The study was cross-sectional and was based in the community in the Nyamagana district, Tanzania. Male partners living in Bugarika street who had kid aged 5 years or below were interviewed semi structured questionnaire to assess the factors contributing to poor male involvement in ANC. The data were analyzed by using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS Version 24). Chi-square test was used to determine the association between demographic characteristics and the level of male involvement in ANC.<br/><br/> Results: Men who were not living together with their partners during pregnancy were less likely to involve in ANC (30%, p value 0.001) compare to those lived together. Only 36% (p value 0.02) of men with more than one wife visited ANC while those with one partner has more participation, men with <3 children had less participation (41.5% p value 0.011) than those with more than three children. Cultural norms, perception of control and social ridicule affect male participation in ANC by 67.9%, 57.3% and 62.5% respectively.<br/><br/>Conclusion: The findings from this study illustrate that both social demographic and socio-cultural factors significantly influence male involvement in ANC services. Number of children, marital status, type of marriage and living together during pregnancy are the demographic factors that significantly affect male involvement in ANC, while the social cultural factors are cultural norms, sense of being controlled by women, social stigmatization or ridicules are found to affect male participation in ANC.<br/><br/>
