Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Obstetric fistula remains a persistent maternal health challenge in sub-Saharan Africa, severely impairing women's physical, social, and psychological well-being. Although surgical repair restores continence, less is known about the factors influencing women's social reintegration after treatment. This study examined the association of continence status and follow-up time on social reintegration among women who underwent obstetric fistula repair in Zambia.
