Abstract
Millions of women across the world risk losing access to essential reproductive health services during the prevalent COVID-19 pandemic. The global and national level healthcare contexts are rapidly changing, and strongly influencing the sexual and reproductive health (SRH) and rights of adolescent girls and women [1]. Sustainable SRH services are of paramount importance in this current pandemic scenario. The SRH rights include an individual’s overall well-being for the SRH and reproductive body and considered imperative for the personal, social and economic growth [2]. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3 and 5 are concerned with SRH rights pertaining to gender equality, women empowerment, accessible family planning services and contraception use [3]. The deep-rooted, gender-based inequalities for females in accessing SRH care have come to the forefront during the COVID-19 pandemic. Disrupted SRH services, gender inequality, and gender-based violence threatens to become a pandemic within the existing pandemic according to the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) [1,4].
