Abstract

Utilizing reproductive health services can help protect people from a variety of sexual and reproductive health issues. As a result, prior to conducting any form of interventions, the level of their service consumption should be assessed. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the amount of use of reproductive health services in Sub-Saharan Africa, as well as its prospects and difficulties. A review of the scientific literature was done using the Cochrane Library, Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases. In conclusion, young women in Sub-Saharan Africa now have access to reproductive health care that are significantly improved. Contrarily, STI diagnosis and treatment was the least often used service, whereas voluntary counseling and testing for HIV was. Co-residence with both parents, sexual partner and peer conversation, and self-perception of risk for HIV/AIDS infection were among the characteristics linked to utilization of reproductive health services.
