Scoping review on the perceptions and attitude of women on methods for collecting cervicovaginal samples for Human Papillomavirus testing in Sub-Saharan Africa
The burden of cervical cancer (CC) continues to rise in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) while some high-income countries are approaching elimination targets. Self-sampling for Human Papillomavirus (HPV) test for CC screening is increasingly used globally to accelerate wide coverage but some have reported barriers against its use. This scoping review explored published literature on the perception and attitude of women on the methods for collecting cervi…

Unveiling masturbatory sexual behaviours in Nigeria
Self- and mutual masturbation are highly prevalent among sexually active Nigerians, with distinct factors influencing each behaviour
A qualitative exploration of perceived risks, motivations, and risk management strategies among brothel-based female sex workers in Ibadan, Nigeria
Female sex workers (FSWs) experience a higher burden of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) compared to the general population due to the nature of their work. In Nigeria, challenges such as poverty, stigma, and poor access to healthcare continue to heighten their vulnerability, even though prevention programmes are in place. However, limited qualitative evidence exists on how FSWs perceive sexual …

Heterosexual Oral and Anal Sex
Acceptability and feasibility of inter-related activities to improve agency among African district health managers
District health managers (DHMs) lead and manage Ministry of Health programmes and system performance. We report on the acceptability and feasibility of inter-related activities to increase the agency of DHMs in Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa and Uganda using a cross-sectional rapid appraisal with 372 DHMs employing structured questionnaires. We found differences and similarities between the countries, in particular, who becomes a DHM. The opportuni…
Economic status, a salient motivator for medicalisation of FGM in sub-Saharan Africa
Female Genital Mutilation or Cutting (FGM) and its medicalisation remain a challenge in sub-Sahara African (SSA). Early identification of at-risk women might help in instituting focused counselling against FGM medicalisation. We hypothesised that the risk of medicalised FGM by girls/women is associated with socioeconomic status (SES) their household belongs. We used 2010-2019 Demographic and Health surveys data from 13 countries in SSA. We analys…

Social barriers to diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer in patients presenting at a teaching hospital in Ibadan, Nigeria
Globally, breast cancer is the most frequent malignancy in women, and stage at diagnosis is a key determinant of outcome. In low- to middle-income countries, including Nigeria, advanced stage diagnosis and delayed treatment represent a significant problem. That social barriers contribute to delay has been noted in previous research; however, few specific factors have been studied. Using semi-structured interviews, this study identifies social bar…
