Abstract Background Community participatory interventions mobilizing women of childbearing age are an effective strategy to promote maternal and child health. In 2017, we implemented this strategy in Gulu Northern Uganda. This study explored the perceived impact of this approach on women's capability. Methods We conducted a qualitative study based on three data collection methods: 14 in-depth individual interviews with participating women of childbearing age, five focus group discussions with female facilitators, and document analysis. We used the Sen capability approach as a conceptual framework and undertook a thematic analysis. Results Women adopted safe and healthy behaviors for themselves and their children. They were also able to respond to some of their family's financial needs. They reported a reduction in domestic violence and in mistreatment towards their children. The facilitators perceived improved communication skills, networking, self-confidence, and an increase in their social status. Nevertheless, the women still faced unfreedoms that deprived them of living the life they wanted to lead. These unfreedoms are related to their lack of access to economic opportunities and socio-cultural norms underlying gender inequalities. Conclusion To expand women's freedoms, we need more collective political actions to tackle gender inequalities and need to question the values underlying women's social status.

AimsThe release of the Cumberlege Report in 2020 served as a reminder of the importance of informed consent for women when they are started on treatment that may affect their fertility or future pregnancies.Our aim was to evaluate current performance with regards to advice given to women of childbearing age around contraception, impacts of psychotropic medication on fertility and future pregnancies, and availability of preconception counselling.MethodStandard identified as NICE Guideline 192 (Antenatal and Postnatal Mental Health), sections 1.2 and 1.4.60 female inpatients were selected by looking at the most recent discharges prior to 03/11/2020 from 3 local acute adult wards. All females aged between 18 and 48 years were included.Electronic notes were reviewed for each patient. The discharge summary and last four ward round entries were reviewed, then key-word search of the patients’ records was performed using the terms “pregnan*”, “conception”, “contraception”, and “fertility”.The following information for each patient was documented in a spreadsheet:Discharge medicationIs there any discussion or advice around contraception?Have women taking antipsychotic medication been given advice regarding the possible impact on fertility?Has the potential impact of psychotropic medication on a future pregnancy been discussed?Has advice been given about the availability of preconception counselling should they plan a pregnancy in future?ResultOn discharge, a total of 33 women were taking one or more antipsychotics and 14 were prescribed a benzodiazepine. 24 women were discharged with antidepressants and 10 women were using a mood stabilising agent. 8 women were discharged without any psychotropic medication.Overall, 4 women received advice about contraception, and a further 8 women were already using contraception. The impact of taking an antipsychotic on fertility was not discussed with any patient. No women were advised about pre-conception counselling. The impact of taking psychotropic medication on a future pregnancy was discussed with one woman.ConclusionCurrent practice falls well below the standard set by NICE. Opportunities to inform women are being missed, and this has implications for the wellbeing of the patient and, potentially, future children.Action plan;Present findings at teaching.Deliver local teaching covering preconception counselling and the role of adult mental health teams when managing women of childbearing age.Produce a poster for inpatients wards and an information leaflet for women of childbearing age to aid with discussions.Create a poster for doctors’ offices to remind about NICE standards and documentation.Re-audit in 6 months.

The worsening demographic situation encourages the search for new reserves to improve reproductive potential. The maximum incidence of chronic endometritis (97.6%) is 26-35 years old - the most important in the implementation of reproductive function. The lack of a single concept for the pathogenesis of HE, the purge of clinical manifestations impedes the creation of well-grounded therapy in women of childbearing age. The aim of the study was to increase the effectiveness of treatment of patients with confirmed chronic endometritis in order to restore fertility. It is proved that the use of the scheme, which includes antibacterial (doxycycline 100 mg orally 2 times a day and metronidazole 500 mg 2 times a day for 14 days in one menstrual cycle) and cyclic progestogen (didrogesterone at a dose of 20 mg per day with 15 to 25 days of the menstrual cycle - within three months), therapy can restore the morpho-functional endometrium potential by 88% compared with the initial rates.
