Globally it is estimated that there are 3 million women suffering from Obstetric Fistula, of which a majority are in Sub Sahara Africa. In Kenya, where approximately 1.2 million births take place annually, the incidence is about 3000 per year. The rate is particularly high in the parts of Kenya where access to skilled delivery remains low such as the Nyanza region in Western Kenya with some areas having less than 30% of women delivering under a skilled attendant.
Women who develop fistulae ends up with an abnormal opening between a woman’s vagina and bladder (Vesico-Vaginal Fistula) and/or rectum (Recto-Vaginal Fistula) associated with reduction of quality of life as well as stigma and discrimination from the community and even close family members such as the husband.
