RA GOVERNMENT APPROVES NATIONAL PLAN OF IMPROVING REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH
RA Government has approved today a national plan of actions and a timetable elaborated to improve reproductive health in 2007-2015. The $8.6 million worth program will be funded by international organizations.
The plan will focus on cutting the number of cancerous diseases affecting reproductive organs, reducing the number of sexually transmitted diseases, infertility rate and abortions, as well as on improving pre-natal care and control.
RA Deputy health minister Hayk Darbinian told after the government session that the plan of actions is aimed also to improve demographic indices, which declined since 1990-s. He said a special focus will be on encouraging families to have more children.
Armenia's chief gynecologist Razmik Abrahamian said only 1 percent of pregnant women give birth to children at domestic conditions. He said also maternity death rate fell drastically from 1990-s when an average of 40 cases were reported to 3 cases this year.
He said the so-called secondary infertility rate is very high, caused largely by abortions and sexually transmitted diseases. Next year a massive investigation into infertility reasons will be conducted.
