Abstract
Unassisted home birth exposes mother and child to the most harmful complications. These complications are identified as one of the main causes of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Goal: To study the factors favoring home births in the Monisso health area. Method: Descriptive cross-sectional study in the period from January 1 to December 31, 2020 in the Monisso health area. Results: The proportion of home births was 80% (N= 210). The reasons given were respectively: the brevity of the labor of delivery (31.55%), the lack of financial means (25.60%), socio-cultural reasons (23.21%), the long distance between the village and the CSCOM (12 .5%), the high cost of delivery costs in the health center (6.55%).
