<![CDATA[A condom is a contraceptive device made of rubber/latex, shaped like an impermeable tube with a tightly closed end and equipped with a sperm collection pouch. To date, the increase in condom use has not met the target, reaching only 41%. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between knowledge and husbands' attitudes regarding condom use as a contraceptive in Huraba Village, Siabu District, Mandailing Natal Regency in 2024. This research is a correlation study using a cross-sectional design. The data sources are primary and secondary data, using a questionnaire as an instrument, and analysis using the chi-square statistical test using SPSS (Statistical Product and Service Solution).

Based on the research results table on the relationship between knowledge and husband's attitudes regarding condom use as a contraceptive, the results obtained from the Chi-Square test table in the Asymp. Sig. (2-sided) column show the probability value. The sig. value is 0.000, which means that the value (p<0.05) and the calculated χ2 value = 30.968 > χ2 table = 5.991 with df = 2 and a significance level of 0.05%. From the results of the study of 38 respondents, it can be concluded that husbands' knowledge about the use of condoms as a contraceptive is "Good" in 15 people (39.5%), and husbands' attitudes are "Positive" in 24 people (63.2%), and there is a relationship between knowledge and husbands' attitudes about the use of condoms as a contraceptive.
