description Objective To assess the level of male involvement in the use of family planning and associated factors among married men. Methods A community‐based cross‐sectional study was conducted from March to April 2018. Married men were randomly selected from four randomly selected kebeles, the smallest administrative division in Ethiopia. Data were collected using an interviewer‐administered structured questionnaire. A multivariable logistic regression model was fitted to identify the associated factors with male involvement in the use of family planning. Results A total of 741 of 744 (99.6%) married men responded to the interview. The overall involvement of men in family planning was 70%. Men aged 25–30 years (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 3.78, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.67–8.54), attending secondary school education (AOR 2.25, 95% CI 1.173–4.31), attending college and higher education (AOR 7.49, 95% CI 3.87–14.51), had more than five children (AOR 14.6, 95% CI 4.37–48.97), and had 3–4 children (AOR 16.13, 95% CI 6.31–41.16) were the factors significantly associated with male involvement in family planning. Conclusion The involvement of married men in family planning was low. Encouraging the education of younger men by considering those who do not have any children is an essential measure to enhance men's involvement in family planning. Synopsis The involvement of married men in family planning was low. Age, level of education, and number of children were the contributing factors.
