Abstract

In an attempt to find ways of preventing the spread of HIV/AIDS in Ekiti State, the study investigated the health problems of men and women of reproductive ages in Ekiti State, Nigeria. The sample consisted 1000 men and women selected using multistage and simple random sampling from four Local Government Areas of the State. The research instrument was a self-constructed questionnaire. It was used to collect data on variables of male and female, location and reproductive age. The validity and reliability coefficient were found to be 0.65 and 0.68 at 0.05 level of significance respectively. Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis were used to analyse the data collected. Results revealed that there was no significant relationship in the health problem of men and women and their reproductive ages as well as location. The findings show there are no health problems among men and women and even location of men and women. It was concluded that the campaigns of the state government, LGs and NGOs are making people change their sexual behaviours and people tend to be living healthier for a better future.
