Overview

Literature review highlights gaps in health policies and access to sexual and reproductive health services for those with mental illness in Nigeria.

Key Points

  • Gaps in health policies limit access to sexual and reproductive health services for individuals facing mental illness.
  • Cultural beliefs and legal frameworks create barriers that hinder access to needed health services.
  • A systematic literature review found insufficient government funding is a major obstacle to effective healthcare delivery.
  • Comprehensive policy reforms are essential to address the needs of marginalized populations with mental health challenges.
