Global and national strategies for the protection of reproductive health and the formation of reproductive behavior have been developed and implemented. In view of the decline in the country's reproductive and demographic potential, comprehensive research is needed to develop a strategy for the formation of reproductive behavior and reproductive needs of the population. In view of the importance of health protection, starting from conception, the prevention of infectious and non-infectious diseases, including diseases of the reproductive system, preventive health strategies must include measures to strengthen the role of primary care medical services as an effective medical tool for influencing the reproductive behavior of the population.</p>reproductive behaviorregulation strategiesrisk factorsreproductive healthreproductive potentialreproductive cultureрепродуктивное поведениестратегии регулированияфакторы рискарепродуктивное здоровьерепродуктивный потенциалрепродуктивная культура[Agarwal A., Baskaran S., Parekh N., Cho C.-L., Henkel R., Vij S., Arafa M., Panner Selvam M.K., ShahR.
