A reproductive healthy society has members with physically and emotionally healthy reproductive organs and interactions. The document discusses reproductive health topics like medical termination of pregnancy (MTP), which is the intentional termination of pregnancy under certain legal conditions in India. It notes the significance and drawbacks of MTP, including illegal terminations leading to death. Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) that can be transmitted during intercourse are also explained, listing common STDs, effects, and prevention methods. Infertility, which is the inability to conceive children, can be caused by physical or psychological factors and may be treatable through assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization (IVF) or gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT).
