Reproductive HealthReproductive Health
It is defined as the total well being in all aspects of reproduction.
● India as a country ensures reproductive health to all, and since 1951,
successive governments have introduced a number of programmes to ensure
this, e.g., family planning and RCH (Reproductive and Child
Healthcare) programmes.
● The aim of these programmes is to create awareness among people about
the various aspects of reproductive health.
● Several audio-visual aids and pamphlets have been developed by both
governmental and non-governmental organisations.
● Awareness is being created among school children by introducing sex
education in schools.
● It is essential to provide medical assistance to people with problems related
to STDs, pregnancy, contraception and infertility, especially in villages.
● Amniocentesis (foetal sex determination based on chromosomal pattern)
has been banned to check female foeticide.
Population Explosion
● Improvement in the quality of life due to all-round development (better
health facilities and improved conditions of living) has lead to a large
increase in the world population (around 1 billion in the year 2000).
● The causes of population explosion are:
○ Decline in death rate (including maternal mortality rate and infant
mortality rate)
○ Increase in the number of people in the reproducible age
● Population explosion causes a scarcity of every basic need.
● Therefore, it has become essential to check this increase in population.
● One-child norm, increasing the marriageable age and promoting
contraceptive methods are some of the ways to check population explosion.
Birth Control
● It is essential to ensure birth control to check population explosion.
