But even to create the next generation women literacy plays a very strong role, according to the data. Illiteracy leads to less knowledge in healthcare, which causes complication in the pregnancy, leading in some cases to still birth. This study mainly focuses on the relationship between the Literacy rate, Anaemia (poor nutrition causes low red blood cell) prevalent in the pregnant women, how these factors influence the complications during labor and how it affects the health of the new born. The results show that there is a strong correlation between education for women and health care, especially in keeping up with the pregnancy related requirements. |
