What is obstetric fistula?

A hole between the birth canal and the bladder or re**um caused by prolonged, obstructed labour without timely medical care—leading to uncontrollable leakage.

Obstetric fistula is preventable and treatable—and ending it is within our reach.

Investing in quality maternal health care means protecting women’s dignity, futures, and lives across the Arab region.
