Background: Family planning is a crucial component of primary healthcare because it protects the lives of expectant mothers and newborns, gives women more control over their lives, and aids them in making decisions regarding their health, participation in society, and educational pursuits. Aim: To investigate the effect of nursing counselling on empowering future couples' perceptions and attitudes towards family planning methods. Method: Design: Two groups (the study group and the control group) were used in a quasi-experimental research design. Setting: This investigation was conducted in the Maternal and Child Health Centre (Quibly) in Shebin El-Kom, Menoufia Governorate. Sample: Three hundred and sixty prospective couples were chosen as a purposive sample. Instruments: a structured interviewing questionnaire, the future couples' opinions of family planning techniques, and their attitudes towards those techniques. Results: It reveals that 85.6% of the study group and 38.9% of the control group both obtained high knowledge scores. Additionally, more than half of the prospective couples in the study group (75.0%) had a favorable opinion of family planning strategies, as opposed to 25% in the control group. In addition, as compared to 55.6 percent in the control group, nearly two-thirds (72.2%) of the upcoming couples in the study group had a favorable attitude towards family planning techniques. Conclusion: The knowledge score of future couples who got nursing counselling was greater than the knowledge score of future couples who did not. Additionally, future couples who received family planning counselling felt better about it than future couples who did not. Future couples who received nursing counselling also scored better on attitude than future couples who did not. Recommendations: Increasing future couples' knowledge of family planning options through suitable public and religious policies.
