MONDAY HEALTH BURST ON HEART HEALTH IN MEN: REDUCING CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE RISK

The World Health Organization reports that in 2019, an estimated 17.9 million people died from cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), accounting for 32% of all global deaths.1 As a leading cause of death among men worldwide, cardiovascular disease presents significant but often preventable risks. By understanding these risk factors and adopting healthy lifestyle changes, men can take proactive steps to greatly reduce their chances of developing heart-related conditions.

CVD encompasses various conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels, including heart attacks, strokes, and high blood pressure. Men, especially in middle age, face higher risks due to genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. As men tend to develop CVD at younger ages than women, early prevention is critical.

Several modifiable risk factors contribute to CVD in men. High blood pressure is a common cause, as it damages arteries and strains the heart. Managing blood pressure through regular monitoring, reducing sodium intake, and managing stress is essential. High LDL (bad) cholesterol, another major risk, can lead to artery blockages. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats can help maintain cholesterol levels.

Smoking greatly raises heart disease risk by damaging blood vessels and lowering oxygen levels in the blood, making quitting one of the most impactful steps toward a healthier heart. Physical inactivity also increases the risk of heart disease; regular exercise strengthens the heart, improves circulation, and controls weight, blood pressure, and cholesterol. The American Heart Association recommends at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week.

Diabetes is another risk factor, as high blood sugar can damage blood vessels. Managing diabetes through proper diet, regular exercise, and medication reduces the risk.

Men can improve heart health with a few practical lifestyle changes. Adopting a heart-healthy diet that includes low saturated fats, high fiber, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins is crucial, along with incorporating omega-3-rich foods like salmon and walnuts, which promote cardiovascular health. Regular exercise is also essential, as it strengthens the heart and boosts circulation. Maintaining a healthy weight is particularly important, as obesity increases the risk of heart disease and related conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes. Even modest weight loss can lead to significant heart health benefits.

Stress management is another key component of heart health. Chronic stress can contribute to high blood pressure and unhealthy coping mechanisms such as overeating or smoking. Relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga can help manage stress.

Finally, routine check-ups allow for early detection and monitoring of blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels. Discussing family history with a healthcare provider is also crucial for assessing overall risk and creating a personalized plan for heart health.

Reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease is within reach through consistent lifestyle changes and preventive care. A heart-healthy diet, active lifestyle, quitting smoking, stress management, and regular health screenings are all effective ways to lower the risk of heart disease. By prioritizing heart health today, men can prevent complications and enjoy a longer, healthier life.

VACCINE PREVENTABLE DISEASES

Millions of lives are saved annually by vaccination, making it a success story in global health and development. Vaccines lower the chance of contracting an illness by enhancing your body’s defenses against infection.1

Vaccination also reduces the risk of spreading the diseases among family members, school mates or colleagues, friends and neighbours, as well as to other people in the community.2 However, despite their proven efficacy, vaccine-preventable diseases (VPDs) continue to pose significant challenges globally, underscoring the importance of vaccination efforts.

VPDs are illnesses that can be effectively prevented through vaccination. These diseases range from relatively common infections like influenza and measles to more severe conditions such as polio and hepatitis. While some VPDs have been largely eradicated in certain regions due to successful vaccination campaigns, others remain prevalent, particularly in areas with limited access to healthcare and vaccination programs.

Measles, for example, once considered eliminated in many developed countries, has seen a resurgence in recent years due to gaps in vaccine coverage and hesitancy.3 The highly contagious nature of measles underscores the importance of high vaccination rates to achieve herd immunity, protecting vulnerable populations such as infants who are too young to be vaccinated and individuals with compromised immune systems.

Polio serves as another stark reminder of the importance of vaccination. While significant progress has been made in reducing polio cases globally, the disease remains endemic in a few countries. Efforts to eradicate polio entirely continue, highlighting the necessity of sustained vaccination efforts and international cooperation. In Nigeria, the Nigeria Polio Lab Sample Transport (PLST) Project sought to contribute to Goal 2 – Stop poliovirus transmission and prevent outbreaks in non-endemic countries – of the Global Polio Eradication Strategy 2022 -2026. It focused on increasing the speed of detection and precision surveillance system.4, 5.

Influenza, commonly known as the flu, poses a yearly challenge due to its ability to mutate rapidly, necessitating annual vaccination campaigns. While influenza vaccines may not offer complete immunity, they significantly reduce the severity of illness and lower the risk of complications, especially among vulnerable populations such as the elderly and individuals with chronic health conditions.6

Hepatitis B and human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines represent notable advancements in preventing certain types of cancer. Hepatitis B vaccination at birth has significantly reduced the incidence of chronic hepatitis B infection and liver cancer, while HPV vaccination has led to a decrease in HPV-related cancers, including cervical cancer. In 2023, CFHI with support from the National Primary Healthcare Development Agency (NPHCDA), Women Advocates for Vaccine Access (WAVA), and other stakeholders, trained and equipped 10 Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine champions from Kurudu ward in Bwari Area Council on demand generation, sensitization, and referral for HPV Vaccine Uptake in Kurudu Community. As of December 2023, about 4000 people were sensitized, and 2300 girls were mobilized for HPV vaccination in Kurudu ward.7

Vaccine hesitancy, fueled by misinformation and mistrust, poses a significant obstacle to achieving optimal vaccine coverage. Addressing vaccine hesitancy requires comprehensive public health education efforts to dispel myths and misconceptions, build trust in vaccines, and emphasize their safety and efficacy based on scientific evidence.

Furthermore, ensuring equitable access to vaccines is essential to reducing disparities in disease burden and achieving global health security. Efforts to improve vaccine distribution infrastructure, strengthen healthcare systems, and address socioeconomic barriers are critical in reaching underserved communities and achieving universal vaccine coverage.

SPEAK WEDNESDAY ON PERIOD POVERTY AND ITS IMPACT ON GIRLS MENSTRUAL HEALTH

Period poverty, which encapsulates the challenges of accessing menstrual products, education, and sanitary facilities, significantly affects millions of women and girls worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that over 500 million individuals lack adequate resources for managing menstrual hygiene.

A critical examination of period poverty reveals dire health implications. The WHO points out that inadequate menstrual hygiene management is linked to several health issues, including bacterial and reproductive tract infections, as well as urinary tract infections.
Furthermore, the United Nations has highlighted the potential of severe conditions such as toxic shock syndrome and cervical cancer stemming from the use of unsanitary menstrual materials like old rags, leaves, or newspapers.

Beyond physical health, period poverty exerts a profound impact on mental well-being. UNICEF reports that the inability to afford menstrual products often leads to feelings of humiliation and shame among girls, precipitating anxiety and depression. This emotional toll can disrupt their education, forcing some to abandon school altogether, further isolating them socially and limiting their future educational and employment opportunities. Such outcomes perpetuate a cycle of social and economic disadvantage with far-reaching implications.

Access to affordable, reusable, and safe menstrual supplies and education on menstrual health and sanitation is crucial. Governments and organizations must prioritize addressing the underlying factors contributing to period poverty. By advocating for change and enhancing awareness, period poverty can be acknowledged and addressed as the significant human rights issue it is, paving the way for a future where all women and girls can manage their menstrual health with dignity.

Today, March 20, 2024, the Centre for Family Health Initiative (CFHI), in collaboration with Real Relief, is hosting an event titled “Menstrual Equity and Empowerment: A Pathway to Gender Equality” at the ongoing UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) 68th session in New York. This event marks a significant step in raising awareness and fostering change.

SPEAK WEDNESDAY ON WOMEN’S HEALTH AND REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS

Women’s reproductive and health rights are critical to attaining gender equality and fostering women’s well-being. The World Health Organization and the United Nations have acknowledged the significance of defending women’s reproductive and health rights, which are inextricably tied to their social, economic, and political standing. In Nigeria, women’s reproductive and health rights are protected by both international and national laws.
Discrimination against women in health care is a violation of their human rights, according to the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW). The treaty demands equal access to health care services, particularly reproductive health treatments, as well as the abolition of harmful cultural practices that undermine women’s health.
Nigeria is a signatory to CEDAW and established legislation to protect women’s reproductive and health rights. The 2014 National Health Act affirms the right to health care services, including reproductive health services, and requires health facilities to offer emergency obstetric care to pregnant women. The Violence Against Persons (Prohibition) Act of 2015 criminalizes many forms of violence against women, including female genital mutilation, and ensures the protection of victims.

Additionally, by prohibiting child marriage and respecting girls’ rights over their bodies, the Child Rights Act of 2003 protects young girls’ reproductive rights.
The Child Rights Act of 2003 also protects the reproductive rights of young women by prohibiting child marriage and upholding girls’ autonomy over their bodies.

Women in Nigeria still struggle to obtain services related to reproductive health, and they frequently face violence and discrimination based on their gender, in spite of these laws and initiatives. Harmful practices like female genital mutilation and child marriage, which can have a negative impact on women’s health, are typically supported by cultural and religious beliefs.
In conclusion, establishing gender equality and advancing the welfare of women in Nigeria and around the world depend on safeguarding their legal access to contraception and other health-related services. In Nigeria, women’s reproductive and health rights are also legally protected, but more must be done to eradicate harmful traditions and ensure that every woman has access to reproductive health care.

MONDAY HEALTH BURST ON THE IMPORTANCE OF FAMILY PLANNING

Family planning is an important aspect of reproductive health that involves the use of various methods to control the number and spacing of children in a family. It empowers individuals, couples, and families to make informed decisions about their reproductive health, improve their overall well-being, and achieve their life goals.

In Nigeria, knowledge of any contraceptive method is widespread, according to the 2008 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey report. However, despite this knowledge, contraceptive prevalence is only 15%, and the actual use of contraceptives varies between states in the country and is influenced by sociodemographic factors.

Several years ago, the Centre for Family Health Initiative (CFHI), in partnership with the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) and other relevant stakeholders, organized a comprehensive training program on Family Planning (FP) and Post-Partum Family Planning (PPFP) services in Kaduna State. The main objective of the program was to enhance community awareness of these services and establish connections between the community and health facilities. The training program targeted all categories of key influencers, and as a result, a total of 921 Traditional Birth Attendance, 513 Traditional/Religious Leaders, 285 Islamiyah School Teachers, and 594 CWO/Zumunta Mata members were successfully reached across the 10 LGAs.

There are many reasons why family planning is important, including:
Promoting maternal and child health: Family planning can help reduce the risk of maternal and infant mortality by allowing women to plan and space their pregnancies, which can improve their overall health and reduce the risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth.
Empowering women: Family planning gives women the ability to make informed decisions about their reproductive health, pursue education and career goals, and achieve greater economic independence and improved social status.
Reducing poverty: Family planning can help reduce poverty by allowing families to have fewer children and invest more resources in each child’s education and well-being.
Protecting the environment: Family planning can help reduce the strain on natural resources by reducing population growth and resource consumption.
Improving the overall quality of life: By allowing individuals and couples to plan and space their pregnancies, family planning can lead to improved overall quality of life for families, communities, and societies.
Access to a broad selection of family planning methods and services is crucial for individuals and couples to make informed decisions about their reproductive health and family well-being.

SPEAK WEDNESDAY ON PERIOD POVERTY: THE ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL IMPACTS ON WOMEN’S HEALTH AND WELL-BEING.

Period poverty, defined as a lack of access to period products, education, and facilities, is a major issue affecting millions of women globally. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 500 million women and girls do not have access to sufficient menstrual hygiene management sanitation services. Women’s health suffers as a result of a lack of access to menstrual products and facilities, as well as their social and economic well-being.

According to the WHO, a lack of access to menstruation products and facilities can result in bacterial infections, reproductive tract infections, and urinary tract infections. The UN has also acknowledged that poor menstrual hygiene management might result in toxic shock syndrome and cervical cancer. The use of unsanitary materials like old rags, leaves, or newspapers can increase the risk of infection and disease.
Women’s mental health is also impacted by period poverty. According to UNICEF, girls who cannot afford menstrual products typically feel humiliated, which leads to anxiety and despair. In rare situations, girls may drop out of school entirely, resulting in social isolation and marginalization, as well as decreased access to educational and career possibilities, with long-term social and economic ramifications.
Furthermore, the social stigma associated with periods can make women feel ashamed or afraid to seek help or speak out about their problems. This can lead to a lack of menstrual health knowledge and education, prolonging the cycle of period poverty.

CFHI’s innovation of reusable sanitary pads, known as Safepad, aims to create economic opportunities for women and young girls in local communities while also providing vulnerable groups with access to affordable or no-cost sanitary pads. In 2022, CFHI provided education on menstrual hygiene practices to approximately 60 students and distributed over 30 packs of free reusable sanitary pads to vulnerable girls, and this year, the organization aims to expand its impact and reach more individuals in need.

To address period poverty, it is essential to break the cycle of shame and stigma surrounding menstrual health. Providing education on period health and sanitation is a necessary step, but women also require access to affordable, reusable, and safe menstruation supplies. To address the root causes of poverty, governments and organizations must prioritize addressing issues such as gender inequality and economic marginalization. By fostering change and raising awareness, it is possible to remove period poverty as a barrier to women’s health. It is imperative that period poverty is recognized as a human rights issue, and that efforts are made to eliminate the stigma associated with it.

SPEAK WEDNESDAY ON CHILD MARRIAGE IN NIGERIA

“I woke up before everyone that fateful morning, excited about my supposed first day at school. My mother told me I could follow my brothers that day, but my father disagreed with her. He was angry that I was dressed to leave for school. He ordered me to go back to my room, that school is not necessary since I would be married off the next week. I was only eleven years old. I felt bad because I wanted a chance to sit with my mates in a classroom. I wish my mother had enough strength to defend me. Ever since I was married off to my husband who died 12 years later, I never saw the four walls of a school. Not because I didn’t want to, but ever since my husband died, it has been from one challenge to another for me and my 3 children”. ~ Amina.

This is one of many similar stories in Nigeria about child marriage. According to UNICEF, child marriage refers to any formal marriage or informal union between a child under the age of 18 and an adult or another child. Nigeria, as the most populated country in the region (West and Central Africa), has the most child brides. Nigeria is home to an estimated 22 million child brides, accounting for 40% of all child brides in the region.
While child marriage is frequent in Nigeria, research shows that the North West has the highest rate (76%), followed by the North East (48%), North Central (35%), South-South (18%), and South East (10%).
Poverty, gender disparity, social norms and practices or religious regulations, and inadequate legislative laws are the key causes of child marriage.
It is a form of human rights and child abuse that deprives a girl child of a healthy upbringing, an education, and a future.
Other negative effects of child marriage on girls include • early pregnancy, which often leads to complications such as Vesico Vaginal Fistula; • risk of domestic abuse; and • financial dependence on their husbands.

Can A Child Give Consent?
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that consent cannot be ‘free and full’ when one of the parties involved is not sufficiently mature to make an informed decision about a life partner.
A child does not have consent, and cannot give it.
To put an end to child marriage, Nigeria needs effective legal reforms, including actions to implement the Child Rights Act and other laws that protect a child’s best interests.
Furthermore, education is a crucial strategy in combating child marriage in a culture, particularly in local societies where ignorance is widespread. It is also critical that the government implement the concept of free basic education for all children in all states, as this will create a shift in attitudes and practices regarding child rights, as well as empower the girl child in terms of life skills and support.
Lastly, in these civilizations where girls are given in marriage, there needs to be a paradigm shift in terms of social and cultural standards. Public education on children’s rights and the detrimental effects of child marriage on children and society at large can help achieve this.
GIRLS, NOT BRIDES.

SPEAK WEDNESDAY ON SAFE MOTHERHOOD

According to the World Health Organization, safe motherhood is providing all women with the care they require to be safe and healthy during pregnancy and childbirth. Safe motherhood is a fundamental right for women, yet it is not always guaranteed in Nigeria. Despite advances in some areas, such as better access to healthcare and more educated birth attendants, there are still significant difficulties in Nigeria to ensuring safe motherhood.

Inadequate access to appropriate healthcare services is one of the key difficulties of safe motherhood in Nigeria. Due to a shortage of health facilities in rural areas, many Nigerian women continue to give birth at home or in unsanitary conditions. Furthermore, most healthcare institutions in Nigeria are understaffed and under-equipped, making it difficult to provide quality maternal healthcare services.

In Nigeria, there is limited knowledge and education on maternal health. Many women in rural areas are unaware of the necessity of antenatal care and may wait until it is too late to seek medical help. Furthermore, cultural and traditional beliefs influence maternal health outcomes in Nigeria. Some communities, for example, believe that women should give birth at home with the assistance of traditional birth attendants, resulting in high rates of mother and child mortality.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Article 25(2), addressing health and well-being asserts that motherhood and childhood are entitled to special care and assistance.
Also, the Women’s Convention which Nigeria is a state party provides that state parties shall ensure to women appropriate services in connexion with pregnancy, confinement and the post-natal period, granting free services where necessary, as well as adequate nutrition during pregnancy and lactation.

In conclusion, providing safe motherhood in Nigeria is a complex problem with many difficulties. Lack of proper healthcare facilities and skilled experts, cultural customs and beliefs, poverty, and inadequate infrastructure and transportation all contribute to the problem. Addressing these challenges will necessitate a multifaceted approach that includes improving healthcare infrastructure and access, enhancing maternal health education and awareness, and tackling cultural attitudes and behaviours that can have a negative impact on maternal health.

SPEAK WEDNESDAY ON WOMEN’S RIGHT TO HEALTH

Women’s health rights in Nigeria, like those of all individuals, are protected by domestic laws and international treaties, to the majority of which Nigeria is a signatory. Some of these treaties include the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), etc. However, in Nigeria, as in many other countries, there are challenges and issues concerning women’s health that must be addressed.

Maternal health is one of the most pressing issues. Nigeria has a high maternal mortality rate, with many women dying during pregnancy or childbirth as a result of a lack of access to quality healthcare, poor infrastructure, and insufficient health facilities in some areas of the country. This highlights the need for improved access to high-quality reproductive healthcare services, such as antenatal care, skilled attendance at childbirth, and postnatal care for women in Nigeria.

Another issue is the right to sexual and reproductive health care, including family planning. Many Nigerian women face barriers to family planning services and information, resulting in unintended pregnancies, unsafe abortions, and higher maternal and child mortality. Increased awareness, education, and access to family planning services are required to enable women to make informed decisions about their sexual and reproductive health.

Domestic violence, sexual violence, and harmful traditional practices such as female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM) and child marriage are also major concerns in Nigeria. These types of violence can have serious physical and psychological health consequences for women, so efforts should be made to prevent and address them through legal frameworks, public awareness campaigns, and survivor support services.

Furthermore, cultural and societal norms may limit women’s access to healthcare and health-related decision-making. Gender discrimination, unequal access to education, poverty, and a lack of gender-responsive health policies and programs all threaten women’s health rights in Nigeria.

To address these issues and promote women’s health rights in Nigeria, it is critical to implement and enforce existing laws protecting women’s health and rights, to strengthen health systems and infrastructure, to increase access to quality reproductive healthcare services, including family planning, and to raise awareness about gender-based violence and harmful cultural practices.

The Violence Against Persons Prohibition (VAPP) Act, which criminalizes female genital mutilation, harmful traditional practices, violence, and harmful traditional widowhood practices, should be implemented in Nigeria’s 36 states.
Empowering women economically, socially, and politically can also contribute to improving their health status and ensuring their right to health is respected and protected.

SPEAK WEDNESDAY ON STEREOTYPES AGAINST WOMEN IN PROFESSIONS

Gender stereotypes often play a significant role in shaping attitudes towards women in certain professions or industries. Some examples of this include:

1. STEM fields: Women are often discouraged from pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields because they are perceived as being better suited for “caring” or “nurturing” professions. This can lead to fewer representation of women in these fields.
2. Healthcare: Women are often assumed to be more compassionate and nurturing than men, which can result in them being stereotyped into certain roles within the healthcare industry, such as nursing or social work. This can limit their opportunities for advancement.
3. Law and politics: Women who work in these fields are often subjected to sexism and gender-based stereotypes, such as being seen as “not tough enough” to handle the demands of the job. This can lead to fewer women running for office or appointed to political positions.
4. Entertainment and media: Women in the entertainment and media industries are often objectified and sexualized, which reinforces gender stereotypes and can limit their opportunities for meaningful roles.
Addressing these gender stereotypes is important for creating a more equitable and inclusive workplace, and for ensuring that women have equal opportunities to succeed in all professions and industries. This can involve efforts to promote diversity and inclusion, provide mentorship and training opportunities for women, and combat gender-based stereotypes through education and awareness-raising campaigns.
