Reproductive health
Awatif Juma Al Bahar
Dubai Health Authority, UAE
Reproductive health refers to the diseases, disorders and conditions that affect the functioning of the male and female
reproductive systems during all stages of life. A woman’s reproductive system is a delicate and complex system in the body,
it is important to take steps to protect it from infections and injury, and prevent problems – including some long-term health
problems. Hormones are key to reproductive health in all aspects of a woman’s sexual life. They regulate menstruation, fertility
and menopause. The WHO assessed in 2008 that “Reproductive and sexual ill-health accounts for 20% of the global burden of
ill-health for women, and 14% for men.” Reproductive health is a part of sexual and reproductive health and rights. The details
will be discussed during the lecture.
