Abstract :

A large body of research has attempted to explore the relationships between women’s empowerment and their reproductive health practices in some developing countries. The objective of this study is to investigate whether womens empowerment in Nigeria has relation with their reproductive health outcomes. The study uses the Nigerian Demographic Health Survey (NDHS 2008). Three dimensions of empowerment were considered in the study; these include household decision making and attitudes to wife beating and attitude to refusal of sexual intercourse. We determine if the dimensions of women’s empowerment considered have any effect on women’s reproductive health outcomes in Nigeria. The study reveals that women’s empowerment has a direct and significant influence on their reproductive health practices in Nigeria. The study clearly reveals that lack of women’s participation in their household decisions compromise women’s reproductive health in Nigeria.
