Project Title

Improvement of women’s health by enhancing and giving the most up-to-date information about the correct and safe use of Misoprostol and access to the misoprostol in kigoma Region

Brief Project Description

According to the research done by Nyakitonto Youth For Development Tanzania, Ifakara Health Institute and Women Promotion Centre; we have come to realize that most of rural women and infants in Kigoma Region are dying much especially during delivery due to excessive bleeding. These deaths are normally caused by poor health services in rural areas and poor transport facilities which do not favour expectant mothers. Nyakitonto Youth For Development Tanzania realized that in Kigoma region especially in Kibondo, Kasulu and Kigoma rural and kigoma ujiji women are less informed of the availability and correct use of Misoprostol. We discovered that expectant mothers are normally using traditional herbs to prevent excessive bleeding during derivery and to make abortions. Our project aims to improve women health and prevent post-partum haemorrhage by enabling rural women to gain access and correct use of misoprostol. In doing so, we shall have improved women health; reduced marternal mortality and morbidity through the correct use of Misoprostol.
