Youth reproductive health services in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.

This study examines young people's access to reproductive healthcare services via an urban youth advisory centre in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. The aim is to explain why teenagers do not always use existing health services. Data from exit questionnaires with users and focus groups with non-users are analysed to evaluate service accessibility. Analysis suggests that even where clinics are spatially accessible, barriers to access include temporal factors, lack of factual knowledge and stigmatisation. The paper concludes that spatial accessibility is not the only factor necessary to ensure equal access to health services. Recommendations are made towards tackling young people's unmet needs for reproductive healthcare services.

The American College of Obstetrician and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends the first visit to the obstetrician-gynecologist take place between the ages of 13 and 15 years. This visits will provide health guidance, screening, and preventive health care services and provide an excellent opportunity for the obstetrician-gynecologist to start a physician-patient relationship. This visit generally does not include an internal pelvic examination.
