Reproductive health refers to physical, emotional, behavioral, and social well-being related to reproduction. The World Health Organization defines it as a complete state of well-being in all matters relating to the reproductive system and its functions and processes. India was one of the first countries to initiate family planning programs in 1951 to promote total reproductive health as a social goal. These programs, now called Reproductive and Child Health Care Programs, aim to create awareness about reproductive health issues and provide support and facilities to build a healthier society. The government has taken measures such as using media to raise awareness, introducing sex education in schools, and providing medical facilities and care related to pregnancy, childbirth, sexually transmitted diseases, and other reproductive health issues
