Maternal health is one of the most crucially important subjects a
country that is experiencing high infant and child mortality like
Bangladesh. Now, it has become a major interest to demographic
researchers. But it is very recent in Bangladesh. Very reasonably
an attempt has been made here to find out the determinants of the
reproductive health programs and their possible effect on maternal
health using BDHS 2004 data. Bivariate analysis has been employed
to study the differentials in the socio-economic status and
reproductive health care according to some selected demographic and
socio-economic characteristics. Older mothers, mothers with high
parity, those who live in rural areas and illiterate mothers are
more likely did not received any ANC. Mass media was found to have
strong effect on receiving ANC. Multivariate analysis shows that
variables like mother's age at birth, highest education level,
partner's education attainment, and wealth index are significant in
this regard. This study finding contain a number of implications
for policy purposes that could be useful in devising ways to
increase the utilization of maternal health services in Bangladesh.
