Article Synopsis
- - More than one billion people live with disabilities globally, facing significant discrimination and health disparities, especially in developing nations where 80% of this population resides, hindering their access to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services.
- - A study in Bangladesh used a mixed-methods approach to investigate how education influences the utilization of SRH services among persons with disabilities, surveying 5,000 individuals and conducting 15 in-depth case studies.
- - The results indicate that higher education levels correlate with increased use of SRH services, while those with lower educational attainment reported misinformation and negative experiences with healthcare providers, leading to a decline in service-seeking behavior.
