Ethical and Legal Considerations for Sterilization Refusal in Nulliparous Women.

We address the ethical and legal considerations for elective tubal sterilization in young, nulliparous women in Canada, with comparison with the United States and the United Kingdom. Professional guidelines recommend that age and parity should not be obstacles for receiving elective permanent contraception; however, many physicians hesitate to provide this procedure to young women because of the permanence of the procedure and the speculative possibility of regret. At the practice level, this means that there are barriers for young women to access elective sterilization; they are questioned or

How armed conflict shapes women's family planning and abortion uptake and decision-making: a scoping review.

Armed conflict profoundly affects women's sexual and reproductive health and rights, yet the pathways through which conflict shapes family planning and abortion uptake and decision-making remain insufficiently understood. This scoping review aimed to identify and map the available evidence on how armed conflict influences women's use of, access to, and decisions about family planning and abortion in conflict-affected settings. Following JBI guidance and -ScR reporting standards, searches were conducted in Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed and Embase for peer-reviewed articles published in English

Reproductive health considerations for HIV prevention integrated care models for women who inject drugs: Qualitative perspective of participants and providers in HIV Prevention Trials Network 094.

BACKGROUND: Cisgender women who inject drugs (WWID) face gendered health inequities and unique barriers to accessing healthcare services. We explored WWID's sexual and reproductive health (SRH) needs to inform the development of integrated care for this population. METHODS: The HPTN 094 (INTEGRA) study tested the efficacy of delivering mobile integrated services for people who inject drugs. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 116 INTEGRA participants and staff to identify barriers and facilitators for medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) and HIV prevention and treatment. We co

Ancient DNA reveals matrilineal organisation and recurrent unions between dominant matrilines in Iron Age Britain.

Kinship practices underpin all traditional societies, forming the basis for socially sanctioned reproductive unions, residence patterns and the inheritance of rights and property 1,2 . Although the relationship between biological relatedness and kinship is not always straightforward, ancient DNA studies are increasingly used to examine the extent to which biological relatedness underpinned social constructs of kinship in prehistoric societies 3-6 . Here, we report the analysis of genome-wide data for 534 individuals from the Arras Culture of Middle Iron Age northeast England (including 390 fro

Regulating the future of procreation: a proposed comprehensive framework for in vitro gametogenesis (IVG) in Israel.

In vitro gametogenesis (IVG) is a novel reproductive technology that promises to derive functional human gametes from both embryonic and reprogrammed somatic cells. Currently, this technology is still in the experimental stages, but is approaching clinical viability, which necessitates the development of robust regulatory frameworks for its application in human reproduction. As assisted reproductive technologies (ART) are widely utilized in Israel and heavily subsidized by the state, it would be timely to propose a comprehensive framework for incorporating IVG within the nation's fertility tre

Fostering Healthy Relationships in Special Olympic Athletes: Supporting the Intersection of Intellectual Disability and Sexual Health.

BACKGROUND: People with intellectual disabilities have equal rights to explore their sexuality and access sexual and reproductive healthcare, yet little is known about their needs and wants when accessing health education. The current study sought to learn about the sexual health interests, attitudes, and educational needs of Special Olympics (SO) athletes. METHODS: Thirteen participants completed a questionnaire and a 45-min interview, including SO athletes, coaches and caregivers of SO athletes. RESULTS: Survey responses indicated the importance of access to sexual health education, but si

Analysing the intersection between health emergencies and abortion during Zika in Brazil, El Salvador and Colombia.

The Zika outbreak of 2015-7 is a lens to analyse the positioning of abortion within in global health security. The sequelae of the virus almost exclusively affected newborn children, manifested through Congenital Zika Syndrome (CZS), and a focus on women at risk of, planning or being pregnant. At the global level, debate considered whether Zika would provide impetus for regulatory change for reproductive rights in Latin America, a region with some of the most restrictive abortion regulation in the world. However, regulatory change for abortion did not occur. We analyse why the Zika health emer…

"Is It Really Confidential?" A Content Analysis of Online Information About Sexual and Reproductive Health Services for Adolescents.

PURPOSE: Many young people are not aware of their rights to confidential sexual and reproductive health (SRH) care. Given that online health information seeking is common among adolescents, we examined how health education Web content about SRH for young people addresses confidentiality. METHODS: In Spring 2017, we conducted Google keyword searches (e.g., "teens" and "sex education") to identify health promotion Web sites operated by public health/medical organizations in the United States and providing original content about SRH for adolescents/young adults. Thirty-two Web sites met inclusio

Meeting the Reproductive Health Needs of Female Key Populations Affected by HIV in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: A Review of the Evidence.

Female sex workers and other women at high risk of acquiring HIV have the right to sexual and reproductive health, including the right to determine the number and timing of pregnancies. We conducted a literature review to examine the data that exist regarding the family planning and reproductive health needs of female key populations, the underlying determinants of these populations' vulnerability to poor reproductive health outcomes, and the obstacles they face in accessing high-quality reproductive health services. Findings indicate that female key populations experience high rates of unmet

Female genital mutilation in the era of medicalization: A growing threat to global elimination efforts.

Female genital mutilation (FGM) remains a major global public health and human rights concern, with recent evidence highlighting a concerning shift toward medicalization. The involvement of health workers in performing FGM creates a false perception of safety, reinforces social acceptance, and threatens progress toward global elimination. This article discusses the drivers and consequences of medicalized FGM, including social pressures, misconceptions of harm reduction, weak enforcement, and professional ethical challenges. Although medicalization is sometimes promoted as a safer alternative,

Снижение риска сексуальной активности и увеличение числа инфекций, передаваемых половым путем, среди женщин, живущих за пределами сельских районов Китая.

Супружеская миграция создает уникальную ситуацию для «левых женщин» в сельских районах Китая, которые сталкиваются с проблемами в области их сексуального и репродуктивного здоровья и прав (СРПЧ). Используя набор данных Обзора состояния здоровья и семейной жизни Китая за 2000 год, мы сопоставляем результаты обследования сексуального и репродуктивного здоровья женщин, оставшихся без присмотра, и женщин, не являющихся мигрантами. Хотя, согласно сообщениям, уровень сексуальной активности значительно ниже, левые женщины в непропорционально большой степени страдают от хламидии, несмотря на отсутстви
