Abstract EN
Perception of reproductive illness by the women themselves is important in understanding the women's reproductive health in a particular society.
It also indicates the possibility of taking perception as a tool for measuring reproductive illness.
Though women do not have a “germ theory” to explain their reproductive illness they have a sense of illness pathology.
Reproductive illness perceived by women is related to physical symptoms and situations in a network of meanings and different meanings are socially generated to articulate their experiences.
