Reproductive health is a multidisciplinary field of inquiry and practice concerned with a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity, in all matters relating to the reproductive health system and its functions and processes.
General Education Objectives:
The primary goal of this course is to deliver the basic knowledge about reproductive anatomy and physiology, pregnancy, contraception, abortion, sexually transmitted diseases, and maternal mortality to the student, in order to translate them into effective public health policies and programs.
