Abstract
The current state of tribal women's reproductive health in India is discussed in the study. Due to the culture of silence, there is less research and knowledge on reproductive health issues. The majority of the information on the topic is provided by government agencies and initiatives. Overall, the tribal reproductive health situation is not encouraging when it comes to morbidity and mortality, food, marriage, family planning, breastfeeding, childcare, and nutrition. There is a widespread belief that tribal people, both men and women, who live in natural settings like forests are extremely robust and healthy. Contrarily, field studies show that the majority of tribal people actually live in nearly filthy conditions, have low and insufficient access to food, high rates of malnutrition, high mortality, and disease, no prenatal or postnatal care, food taboos, and don't use contraceptives. Due to political unrest and fundamentalist activity in locations like the north-eastern states, indigenous women's health is at risk. Whether tribal or generic, this component of reproductive health difficulties and problems are only experienced by women, and it is still more or less linked to the culture of silence among men. For each tribal community, it needs to be thoroughly researched.
