Abstract
The purpose of this study article is to determine the determinants of rural women's desire for reproductive health care from modern institutions in order to determine the level of demand. In light of this, 55 women were questioned. Home birth was 76 percent of the time in 55 cases, and Trained Birth Attendants were present for 20 percent of the time. The use of modern facilities accounted for 40% of deliveries, while traditional methods accounted for 60%. As a result, rural women's demand for reproductive health care (particularly referring delivery services) is low. Economic, social, cultural, and behavioral issues all contributed to the low demand for reproductive health care. However, it has been discovered that there is a significant variation in how the poor and wealthy respond to underlying factors that influence the use of reproductive health care commodities. For the impoverished, economic reasons were critical, but not for the wealthy.
Key Words: Reproductive Health, Economic Condition and Delivery behavior
