Abstract
This research sought to look into how intimate partner relationships affect women's reproductive health-more closely within socio-cultural contexts that constrain autonomy. The study ought-after objectives include identifying how communication possesses an impact on contraceptive usage and family planning; analyzing the role of partner involvement in accessing maternal health service; examining the association between decision-making autonomy and reproductive health; and investigating the links between intimate partner violence and reproductive health behavior. In order to collect quantitative data-an enumeration exercise involving 367 married women in Okara Cantonment-was completed using structured questionnaires. Chi-square analysis revealed that 86% of respondents had access to antenatal healthcare; however, socio-cultural norms, intimate partner violence, and economic dependency posed significant barriers to autonomy. It was found that shared decision-making was significantly correlated with health outcome improvements (χ² = 94.299; p < 0.001). This research highlights the implication of gender sensitivity in policy, community driven interventions and also engaging the male members of the community in challenging harmful norms, empowering women and achieving equitable reproductive health outcomes.
