Living in Lagos comes with its own unique challenges. From stress to poor healthcare access, many factors can affect a woman’s reproductive health. Here are 5 things every Lagos lady should pay attention to:
1. Infections from Poor Sanitation or Unsafe Sex
In many parts of Lagos, women face risks from untreated water, or unprotected sex. This can lead to infections like rashes UTIs, BV, or STI
2. Self-Medication and Overuse of Antibiotics
Many women in Nigeria buy antibiotics without prescriptions. This can harm vaginal flora and cause resistant infections. Always get tested before treatment.
3. Stress and Hormonal Imbalance
Lagos life is stressful—traffic, work, hustle. Chronic stress affects your period, ovulation, and libido. Learn stress-relief strategies and track your cycle.
4. Birth Control Misuse or Lack of Options
Some women use emergency pills(postinor or post-pill) regularly, not knowing it’s unsafe.
5. Lack of Routine Checkups
Too many women ignore symptoms or wait until it’s serious. Regular pelvic exams, Pap smears, STI screening, and ultrasound scans can help detect issues early.
