Health seeking behavior and barriers to accessing services for RTI/ STI among Reproductive Age Women of Dehradun, Uttarakhand
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 9
Abstract
Background: It has been established beyond doubt by different community based studies that prevalence of RTI is quite high among reproductive age group women but the care seeking behavior is quite poor. Hence it was imperative to study the prevalence of RTI/STI, health seeking behavior and barriers to care seeking in the reproductive age women. A cross sectional study was done for a period of 6 months in a tertiary care centre. A systematic random sampling using PPS was used for sampling and chi square test with p<0.05 as significant at CI of 95% was considered.
