A General Medical Practitioner, Dr Adeolu Olusodo, on Sunday advised young girls not to tamper with their womb in order not to suffer infertility in future.
Olusodo, who is the Founder of Atayese Health Network, a non-profit clinic at Mojoda-Adamo, Ikorodu, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that a woman’s womb was what made her unique and important.
Olusodo said: “The women folks do not know that they are more important than men when it comes to continuity of life; That is the role God has placed in their hands.
“How important they take the role will determine how fulfilled they will be in life and the moment they leave that role and run out to other priorities, there will be issues.

“So do not tamper with what makes you to be unique without prejudice to women who are going to fertility clinics.
“ The younger girls must guard, keep, cherish their womb and avoid the use of contraceptives so as not to tamper with the natural process and cause the body to react.’’
Olusodo, however, urged young girls to be reserved and avoid having multiple sex partners.
According to him, there are health implication of sexual promiscuity.
“There are health implications to having many sex partners; in West Africa, the commonest cancer among women is cervical cancer.
“There is a particular predisposing factor to cancer of the cervix and that is multiple sexual partner.
“People who have had multiple sexual partners in their lives are more at risk of having cancer of the cervix than those who stick to one person all their lives.
“Statistics also show that the more sex you have, the higher the chances of having sexually transmitted diseases,’’ he said.
Olusodo, therefore, urged young girls to run away from sex, saying they were not ripe for it. (NAN)
