Maternal Health

According to WHO "Maternal health refers to the health of women during pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period. While motherhood is often a positive and fulfilling experience, for too many women it is associated with suffering, ill-health and even death"
Major Causes of maternal mortality are haemorrhage, infection, high blood pressure, unsafe abortion, and obstructed labour.
