Women for both physiological and sociological reasons are more vulnerable
than men to reproductive health problems. Reproductive health problems,
including maternal mortality and morbidity, represent a major-but preventable-
cause of death and disability for women in developing countries.
Urban Society differs from that of Rural Society. Urban areas are equipped
with all the modern amenities. The modern day facilities like the internet,
telephone, television and satellite communication facilities are widely available in
the urban areas (Buzzle.com). However, people in rural areas live in a close
proximity of nature. Due to a relatively lesser number of people inhabiting the
rural areas, the rural parts are not overcrowded by people.
People in an urban areas and rural areas surely differ as to their culture,
beliefs, values and understandings because of the physical environment that
influences them.
In the Philippines today, we have this, what we call RH Bill that is being
considered by the Filipino lawmakers to promote economic development and
improve access to healthcare, particularly Reproductive Health care. The
researchers wanted to hear women's voices regarding this issue. Because the
researchers believe that there should be equality among men and women, and in
order to meet this equality, women should be given the right to decide in planning
births and in achieving their family-goals and the extent of their use of
contraception.
