Abstract
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.
