Communication et Itinéraire thérapeutique des adolescentes pendant la grossesse, pour l’accouchement et la période post-partum au Burkina Faso
Aïcha TAMBOURA-DIAWARA
La sexualité des adolescentes au Burkina Faso se caractérise par une précocité, entraînant une hausse des grossesses précoces et non désirées. Ces situations exposent les jeunes filles à des risques accrus, notamment lors d’accouchements souvent réalisés sans assistance médicale. Ce phénomène s’explique par un déficit d’information sur la sant(...)
