The study has as central issue the discussion of man s empowerment in relation to reproductive rights in the Health Communitarian Agents´ point of view. It is an exploratory-descriptive research accomplished in the health units of Distrito Sanitário III, in João Pessoa PB. It aimed at perceiving the knowledge of Health Communitarian Agents about reproductive rights and man s participation in the practice of these rights as well as identifying man s empowerment strategies while practicing the reproductive rights. Data were collected by means of interview fulfilled with 25 agents who make up the health family team of the mentioned study place, in the period from June to August 2012. For the accomplishment of the research the Resolution rules n° 196/96 of the Health National Council were observed in reference to research involving human beings and the Resolution n° 311/2007 of the Federal Council of Nursing by acquiring assent by the Research Ethics Committee of the Health Science Center of the Federal University of Paraíba, under the n° 0309/12 and CAEE: 02190312.7.0000.5188. Data were analyzed through Bardin´s content analysis technique. Results realized that there are deficits regarding the health communitarian agents´ understanding on reproductive rights and man s participation in actions involving reproductive health. Nevertheless, a real change in man s role about family planning and the follow-up of the pregnancy-puerperal cycle was revealed. Taking these findings into account, the agents pointed out the following aspects as possible strategies for man s empowerment in reproductive health promotion: domiciliary visit through dialogue committed with awareness for health care, major practice of Basic Attention while promoting the National Policy of Integral Attention to Man s Health as well as the construction of a methodology that favors the insertion of male population based on an inclusive policy. Therefore, it can be concluded that once cultural barrier is overcome, pertaining to discussion about the meaning of being male and female and reproductive health matters, man will be able to recognize himself as subject of reproductive rights acting as co-responsible in the actions of the couple s reproductive life.
