Factors associated with sexually transmitted infections among reproductive age women in Ivory Coast: evidenced by 2021 Ivory Coast Demographic and Health Survey
This study found that nearly seven out of a hundred reproductive-age women in Ivory Coast had sexually transmitted infections, influenced by factors such as age group, region, religion, marital status, media exposure (reading magazines, watching television, and using the internet), history of a terminated pregnancy, and contraceptive utilization. Therefore, healthcare providers and policymakers should focus on these specific predictors to reduce STIs among reproductive-age women.
