About the product

Although reliable access to contraceptives and other commodities is a fundamental requirement for reproductive health, millions of women in developing countries go without these essentials. Therefore, women are vulnerable to unwanted pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections, and the risks of childbirth without basic equipment or medical supplies. This publication touches on the harsh human reality of the commodity shortage and introduces a new global strategy for reproductive health commodity security (RHCS).
