Who really transmits STIs, men or women?

STIs (sexually transmitted infections) are not infections of any particular gender. Both men and women can acquire and transmit an STI, sometimes without having any symptoms.

This video addresses a common source of blame between partners in our communities, the high-risk behaviours that can increase the risk of STI transmission, and why having no symptoms does not mean you cannot have or transmit an STI.

It also emphasizes the importance of partners being tested and treated together when indicated, especially married and intimate partners, to help prevent reinfection and further transmission.

Let’s replace blame with knowledge.

Will donating blood to others finishes your blood?, or make you weak forever?

Many people avoid donating blood because they fear their body will not replace what they gave away.

But did you know that your body has a natural ability to replace donated blood over time?

In this video, I explain in my local language how a human body naturally restores the blood you donate and what happens during the recovery process.

Watch, learn, and share.
Let’s replace myths with facts and encourage more people to understand the importance of blood donation.

Donate Blood. Save Lives. Share Knowledge.

ARE YOU PREGNANT OR EXPECTING? LET’S TALK ABOUT THE MEDICINES GIVEN DURING ANTENATAL CARE! 🤰🏾💊

Have you ever wondered why pregnant women are given folic acid + iron, Albendazole, Fansidar, or Tetanus/diphtheria (Td )injections?

And
are those routine medications really safe?

While the world gives much significance to those routine medications,
In our communities, different beliefs and concerns about these medicines can sometime create fear or discourage women from using recommended antenatal services.

In this video, I explain in my local language what these medicines are for, why they are used, and why they matter during pregnancy.

This is not about blaming our culture or beliefs. It is about understanding, correcting misconceptions respectfully, and making informed health decisions.

Please 🙏🏿 Watch, share, and help translate this message for someone who may need to hear it.

Attending antenatal care clinics is one of the services that can help pregnant mothers to detect risks, manage complications and have a healthy pregnancy experience,

However , most of my local women have limited that experience to only taking the antenatal card as a pass way to be allowed to deliver at the hospital when things are already out of hands , and so many pregnant women usually start attending antenatal clinics at second or third trimester.
I had previously work with mothers and children and the trend is,many local women have low demand for antenatal care services as many rely on previous experiences and traditional beliefs
Antenatal care is one of those specialised services that takes care of mothers during pregnancy and it helps:

- detect risks and complications
- manage complications
-help to have healthy pregnancy experiences and outcomes
In this video I explain in my local language the importance of ANC

Here is why you should be careful about taking traditional or harbal medicine,

Many of our local communities still uses & prefers herbal plants or roots of local plants for treatment of common illnesses

While the practice looks normal & cultural, it has many harmful effects to the body( can damage the liver & kidneys)
Because the plants & its roots are taken raw without modern formulation & detoxification process.

Protect yourself , do not take a raw plant on your own though it has a medicinal value , seek first your Doctor’s opinion.

Breastfeeding is not just a mother’s job
It requires everyone’s support
As a community, it’s our obligation to support mothers by:
1). Providing emotional support
2) provides help with household work
3)encourage mothers to keep on breastfeeding even when they face challenges instead of judging them.
