Health Ministry, Parliament, UNFPA intensify fight against obstetric fistula

The Ministry of Health, Parliament and the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) have intensified efforts to eliminate obstetric fistula in Ghana after new figures revealed that less than one-third of affected women received treatment over the past decade. Data from health facilities across the country show that 3,688 cases of obstetric fistula were recorded between 2016 and 2025, but only 1,096 women underwent reparative surgery during the period.
