Sexual and reproductive health care services for students

The University recognizes sexual and reproductive health as an integral component of student health, well-being, dignity, and overall development. The University strives to provide its students with accurate information, appropriate health-care services, confidential counselling, and a safe and supportive environment to make informed decisions regarding their sexual and reproductive health.

These initiatives aim to improve health literacy, prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs), promote responsible behaviour, prevent unintended pregnancies, address reproductive health concerns, and encourage students to seek timely professional care without fear of stigma or discrimination. Services are designed to respect individual privacy, dignity, informed consent, confidentiality, gender sensitivity, and applicable legal and ethical requirements.

The University promotes awareness and knowledge through structured educational programmes, workshops, seminars, health campaigns, orientation sessions, and digital information resources. These initiatives help students develop the knowledge and skills required to make informed, responsible, and healthy decisions. Key areas of education include sexual and reproductive health literacy, menstrual health and hygiene, sexually transmitted infections, contraception and family planning, consent and healthy relationships, gender sensitivity and inclusivity, sexual health & responsible behaviour and reproductive health across the life course. Educational materials are disseminated through health awareness campaigns, student welfare activities, institutional websites, learning management systems, and other accessible communication channels.

The University facilitates access to appropriate health-care services through its health centre, affiliated hospitals, medical colleges, qualified healthcare professionals, and partnerships with recognized public health institutions.

These services include Medical consultation, Menstrual and gynaecological health services, Sexual health counselling, STI and HIV services, Contraceptive counselling and referral, Pregnancy-related counselling and referral, Preventive healthcare and Referral services

The University ensures that the availability of each service is communicated clearly to students and that referrals are made to competent and appropriate healthcare providers.
