Reproductive Health

Our Purpose:

Through the collaborative efforts of a multidisciplinary reproductive health workgroup, knowledge exchange and advocacy measures, reproductive health will be strengthened and enhanced to help meet the physical, emotional, and psychosocial needs of women of childbearing age and their families across Ontario.

Reproductive health is an encompassing term which ultimately affects the overall health and well being of the family unit. The term includes the following integral areas: preconception health (of both men and women), prenatal & perinatal health, healthy birth outcomes and the transition to parenthood. The work of this group will support a number of practice standards, including the Ontario Public Health Standards.
