• Discussions of the people’s sexual and reproductive health needs have been
largely sidetracked because of the too much attention
given on the population itself.
![Page 3: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
According to
Reproductive Health is“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 system and its functions and processes.
![Page 4: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Reproductive health therefore implies that people are able to have a satisfying
and safe sex life and that they have the capability to reproduce and the freedom to decide if, when and how
often to do so.

Implicit in this last condition are the right of men and women to be
informed [about] and to have access to safe,
effective, affordable and acceptable methods of family planning of their
choice,
![Page 6: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
as well as other methods of birth control which are not
against the law, and the right of access to appropriate health-care services that will enable women to go safely through
pregnancy and childbirth and provide couples with the best chance of having a healthy
infant.”

Male Reproductive Health• Prostate and testicular
cancers are among the leading causes for males.
• Other serious concerns for males include erectile dysfunction, impotence, and premature ejaculation.
![Page 8: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Erectile Dysfunction (ED) • Erectile dysfunction (ED) is
when a man has trouble getting or keeping an
erection. ED becomes more common as you get older.
But male sexual dysfunction is not a natural part of aging.
![Page 9: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Impotence• Impotence is a common
problem among men characterized by the
consistent inability to sustain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse or the
inability to achieve ejaculation, or both.
![Page 10: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Premature Ejaculation• It’s almost impossible to get
an accurate definition of premature ejaculation: what
some couples consider a satisfactory length of
intercourse would be very inadequate for others.
![Page 11: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• At the 2006 Congress of the European Society for Sexual
Medicine, an American research paper reported: the average lasting time of men
with PE was 1.8 minutes 'normal' men lasted an average
of 7.3 minutes.
![Page 12: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• But there were males who claimed to have premature ejaculation, yet who could last up to 25 minutes. This clearly shows people have wildly differing ideas about
what is normal!
![Page 13: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Female Reproductive Health• Common causes of mortality rate
among females includes postpartum hemorrhage, eclampsia, and sepsis.
• Breast cancer remains to be the leading cause of cancer deaths in the country for Filipino women, followed by cervical cancer and ovarian cancer.
![Page 14: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Postpartum Hemorrhage• Postpartum hemorrhage is excessive bleeding following the birth of a baby. About 4
percent of women have postpartum hemorrhage and it is more likely with a cesarean birth. Hemorrhage may occur before or after the placenta is
delivered.
![Page 15: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• The average amount of blood loss after the birth of a single
baby in vaginal delivery is about 500 ml (or about a half of a quart). The average amount of blood loss for a cesarean
birth is approximately 1,000 ml (or one quart).
![Page 16: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Eclampsia
• Eclampsia, a life-threatening complication of pregnancy, is a
condition that causes a pregnant woman, usually previously
diagnosed with preeclampsia (high blood pressure and protein in the urine), to develop seizures
or coma.
![Page 17: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Sepsis• Sepsis is an illness in which
the body has a severe response to bacteria or other germs.
• This response may be called systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS).
![Page 18: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Reproductive health problems remain the leading cause of ill health and death for women of childbearing
age worldwide.
![Page 19: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
According to the WHO:
• Each year, 358, 000 women die due to complications related to pregnancy and
childbirth; 99% of these deaths occur within the most
disadvantaged population groups living in the poorest
countries of the world.
![Page 20: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
National Health Situation of Filipino Women
Philippine Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) remains high at 162 deaths for every 100,000 live births. The National Statistics Office fears that the slow decline in MMR may cause the Philippines to miss its MDG target of bringing down the MMR to 53 by the year 2015. (Family Planning Survey 2006).
![Page 21: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Maternal deaths account for 14% of deaths among women.
According to the Commission on Population, ten (10) women die
every 24 hours from pregnancy or childbirth-related complications
(Popcom 2000).
![Page 22: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
29 infants of every 1,000 live births die before reaching one year of
age; 40 young children die before reaching five
years of age. (NSO, NDHS 2003)
![Page 23: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Close birth spacing and high-risk pregnancies
have been shown to be closely related to
childhood mortality. (NSO, NDHS 2003)
![Page 24: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The Filipino woman's desired number of children is 2.5.
However, the actual fertility rate is 3.5 children or a
difference of one child. This difference is due mainly to
the lack of information on and access to family planning
services. (NSO, NDHS 2003)
![Page 25: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Infertility• A 1986 WHO study found out
that 10 to 15 percent of couples were unable to produce a child.
• In the Philippines, the 1998 National Demographic Health Survey showed that two percent of women were infertile.
![Page 26: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Abortion and Post-abortion Complications
• Of the 3.1 million pregnancies in the country every year, 15 percent end in induced abortions and another 15 percent result in spontaneous abortion.
![Page 27: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• In a study conducted by the Guttmacher Institute and the UP Population Institute, 72
percent of Filipino women who have had an abortion cited
financial difficulty as the main reason for terminating their
pregnancy.
![Page 28: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Sexually Transmitted Infections
•HIV prevalence in the country remains low, with a cumulative case of 3, 061 as of the end of 2007.
![Page 29: Reproductive health](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062319/5558dd3fd8b42ad7138b492a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• However, for the last two years, new cases have breached the 300-mark. At the National Dissemination Forum 2008 Philippine Country Progress Report, Dr. Eric Tayag presented the first HIV and
AIDS Registry Annual Report and based on the data generated by the Registry, 342 new cases were recorded in 2007,
28 of which are AIDS cases.

• Other common STIs include non-gonoccocal
type, trichomoniasis, and gonorrhea (10.1 percent)
