Introduction
• Reproductive health is defined as a state of
physical, mental, and social well-being in all
matters relating to the reproductive system, at all
stages of life. Good reproductive health implies
that people are able to have a satisfying and safe
sex life, the capability to reproduce and the
freedom to decide if, when, and how often to do
so.
• Sexually transmitted diseases (STD), are illnesses
that have a significant probability of transmission
between humans by means of sexual activity.
Common STDs
include chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, HIV/AIDS,
syphilis.
• Sexually transmitted infections affect
reproductive and sexual health, having
a profound negative impact worldwide.
Programs aimed at preventing STIs
include comprehensive sex education,
STI and HIV pre- and post-test
counseling, safer sex/risk-reduction
counseling, condom promotion, and
interventions targeted at key and
vulnerable populations. Having access
to effective medical treatment for STIs
is very important.
• Family-planning counseling, information,
education, communication and services;
• Education and services for prenatal care, safe
delivery, and post-natal care, especially breast-
feeding, infant and women's health care;
• Prevention and appropriate treatment of infertility;
abortion; sexually transmitted diseases; and
reproductive tract infections
• information, education and counselling, as
appropriate, on human sexuality, reproductive
health and responsible parenthood.
Components of reproductive
health
It implies that
• Couples have the ability to reproduce
and regulate their fertility.
• Women are able to go through
pregnancy and child birth safely
• Couples are able to have sexual
relation free of the fear of pregnancy
and of contracting any disease
Concept Of Reproductive Health
HIV&AIDS
• HIV~ (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) The virus
compromises the body’s ability to handle disease
and causes AIDS.
• AIDS~ (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) It
is related to HIV, but they are not one in the
same. A person has AIDS only in the final stages
of HIV, after the immune system becomes unable
to defend itself against foreign invaders like
bacteria, other viruses, and allows the
development of certain cancers.
• Since 1981 1.7 million people in the
U.S. are estimated to have been
infected with HIV.
• 1 in 5 of those infected are unaware.
• MSM (Men who have sex with men )
accounted for 61% of all new HIV
infections in the U.S. in 2009.
• Over 619,000 with HIV have already
died since the epidemic began.
STATISTICS
When HIV emerges from latency (the period
when someone with HIV shows no signs of it)
symptoms can include:
Dry, flaky skin (Xeroderma)
Chronic fatigue
Fever that comes and goes (Pyrexia)
Diarrhea that lasts more than a week
Heavy night sweats (Hyperhidrosis)
Rapid weight loss
Swollen lymph nodes
White spots on tongue, mouth & throat
To be tested for HIV you usually give a sample of blood, urine or a swab of
fluids from your mouth.
It is recommended that if you are sexually active or have multiple partners you
should be tested every 6 months.
Demographic trends and fertility
determinants
• World population reached 1 billion just after 1800.
• But it took less 125 years to add the second billion in
1930.
• In 1960 the world passed the third billion.
• Within 40 years ahead the population doubled to be 6
billions in 2000.
• In year 2010 the world population reached 7 bilion.
• The majority of this expansion has taken place in
developing countries.
• The encouraging news is that the rate of growth is
declining since 1960.
