Cervical cancer is a common and significant health issue for women worldwide. To address the dearth of research on male partners' experiences when their significant others are diagnosed with cervical cancer, we aim to explore the unique challenges and perspectives encountered by men in these circumstances. The study adopted interpretive phenomenological analysis to qualitatively assess the experiences of males with partners diagnosed of cervical cancer. A phenomenological research design with purposive sampling technique was used to recruit and collect data from 38 participants until saturation occurred. Face to face interviews were conducted using a developed semi-structured interview guide. The data collected was analyzed using content analysis after verbatim transcription was done. The study resulted in the identification of 2 main themes, and 10 subthemes. These themes focused on the multifaceted impact of cervical cancer on spousal caregivers' lives and the coping and support mechanisms utilized by spouses of cervical cancer patients. The findings indicated that men faced several challenging experiences as a result of their spouses' condition and revealed the strategies they employed to cope with the stress of caring for their wives. Almost every man adopted a strategy to cope with the condition of their wives. This study would assist other men to understand the psychological, social, emotional, and spiritual experiences the men went through to appreciate and adopt their coping strategies whenever they go through such challenges.
