Poor health and nutritional status among women of reproductive age prior to marriage significantly increase the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and childhood stunting. This study aimed to identify the determinants of premarital couples’ participation in preconception care as a strategy to reduce stunting. This cross-sectional analytical study involved 61 premarital couples recruited through total sampling at the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) in Kapanewon Sewon, Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Inclusion criteria included couples aged 20–35 years who met the study requirements. Data were analyzed using univariate, bivariate (Chi-square), and multivariate logistic regression tests. Knowledge (p = 0.001), attitude (p = 0.007), and social support (p = 0.015) were significantly associated with participation in preconception care. Multivariate analysis showed that couples with good knowledge were 4.3 times more likely (AOR = 4.30; 95% CI: 1.65–11.22) to participate in preconception care. Improved knowledge, positive attitudes, and strong social support significantly increase premarital couples’ participation in preconception care. Strengthening early health promotion and community-based interventions is essential to optimize reproductive health preparation and prevent stunting from its earliest source.</p> Nuriana Kartika Sari, Atik Ismiyati, Munica Rita Hernayanti, Sumarah Sumarah, Indraswari Siscadarsih Copyright (c) 2025 Nuriana Kartika Sari, Atik Ismiyati, Munica Rita Hernayanti, Sumarah Sumarah, Indraswari Siscadarsih http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://e-journal.poltekkesjogja.ac.id/index.php/kia/article/view/2907 Tue, 19 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0700
