Abstract
Preventive measures, especially in the area of reproductive health, can play a significant role in reducing the burden of diseases among the population. This article aims to evaluate the effectiveness of preventive work on reproductive diseases among the general population. It examines the approaches used in the delivery of preventive services, the factors that influence the uptake of these services, and the outcomes of preventive work on reproductive health. The article reveals that effective preventive measures can significantly reduce the prevalence and incidence of reproductive diseases. However, several challenges exist that hinder the uptake of preventive services, including lack of awareness, cultural barriers, and stigma. Addressing these challenges requires a holistic approach that involves working with communities, policymakers, and healthcare providers
