Current global threats to the reproductive health of the nation

Abstract

Background. In the article, the reproductive health of the nation is interpreted as a key aspect of social development, since it directly affects the demographic situation, the economy, and the general state of health of the nation. Therefore, insufficient awareness of reproductive rights, lack of access to sexual education and reproductive health services, as well as socio-cultural and economic factors only complicate the situation. Objective of the review: a comprehensive analysis of modern threats to the reproductive health of the nation in the conditions of a globalized society through the analysis of political, economic, social, cultural and environmental factors of influence and determination of the level of individual dangers. Materials and methods. Disclosure of the research subject requires the use of an inter-complementary approach, which involves the use of various methods and sources of information to obtain a comprehensive and deep understanding of the problem. The article uses the method of comparative analysis with the use of tables, which is applied to the analysis of fertility rates and reproductive health in the world and in Ukraine. Analysis of literary data. A system of interrelated factors affecting the reproductive health of the population in the conditions of a globalized society, population migration and war is defined. It is also revealed that the paradox of modern global society is that individuals who achieve higher economic wealth usually do not want to have many children. In addition to the physiological aspects, the increase in the average age of the population can also affect the ability of families to plan pregnancy and the number of children, as many families in today’s postmodern society postpone the decision to become pregnant until later in life due to professional ambitions, financial constraints or personal circumstances, which causes a shorter period, during that they can safely conceive and give birth to a child and poses a risk of complications. Conclusions. Based on the results of the analysis of the declared problem, it is argued that the study of the reproductive health problems of the nation is of great importance for the social development and sustainable development of mankind. This not only helps to improve the demographic situation, the economy and the general state of health of the nation, but also provides the basis for the development of effective strategies and programs aimed at supporting motherhood and childhood, ensuring access to quality reproductive health services, educating the population on sexual issues health, fertility etc.
