Abstract
This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the impact of cultural and social factors on the reproductive health of the Armenian population. The paper examines deeply rooted gender stereotypes, issues of sexual education, and their influence on women’s health and social status. It explores questions of sex-selective abortions, infertility, and accessibility of medical services. Special attention is given to socio-economic factors affecting access to healthcare in urban and rural areas. Based on current research and statistical data, recommendations are proposed to improve the situation in reproductive health, education, and gender equality in Armenia.
