Child Marriage: Child Birth Problems Associated With Early Marriage by Jayclinics(m): 6:54am On Sep 13, 2014
The main purpose why most marriages take place is
mainly for the purpose of reproduction. Nobody wants
his bloodline to end with him when he must have left this
planet, that is why men try to procreate and make sure
they that leave behind off-springs to keep their lineage up
and going.


Unfortunately, in some countries, most young girls and
under age ones are dragged into what we all call child
marriage, because of certain reasons ranging from
poverty, parental pressure, insecurity, as well as for
political and financial reasons. Today, child marriages
are still fairly widespread in some developing countries,
such as parts of Africa, South Asia,Southeast and East
Asia, West Asia,Latin America,and Oceania.


According to W.H.O and U.N.I.C.E.F on child marriage
issues, the age in which any individual should be
considered an adult is from the age of 18. As a girl,
marriage when you are below the age of 18 is going to
harm you and make your life miserable unless the few
lucky ones. Some are giving away for marriage by their
parents at the age of 13. At this age they are
undeveloped both mentally, physiologically and
otherwise. Their pelvic bone which houses the organs
necessary for reproduction may not be matured enough
to carry the uterus, the bladder and every other organ.
Secondly, during delivery, the uterus compresses heavily
on the urinary bladder, the compression of the uterus on
the bladder might cause a rupture on the urinary bladder
which will cause an abnormal communication between
the vagina, uterus and urethra and make urine to leak into
and out unto the vagina which unlike the urethra doesn’t
have the sphincters to control the flow of urine, so the
urine flows out freely through the vagina at will.

In some cases, the vaginal pathway through which the
baby will come out from will be too narrow to allow for
passage for him/her. The Doctor or midwife on ground
will be required to give a slight incision on the vagina so
as to expand the vagina, most atimes these slight cuts
extend to the anal region, causing an abnormal
communication between the anus and the vagina, then
feces will creep out through the vagina.
This is not a condition any young girl will like to experience.
A child can not be a child and give birth to a child,
resulting to two children. The universe can never be
balanced that way. Most of these girls end up in a
miserable life of poverty because they are likely to have
being deprived from there right to education. Early
married girls have a double mortality rate during child
birth that women giving birth in their 20s. These young
girls are at an increased risk of chronic anemia and
obesity. Lastly, studies show that child marriages lead
to young girls that have a higher risk of becoming a
victim of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and murder.

The problems stated above is referring to any under aged
girl that tries to give birth to a child through the vagina,
be it married or still single. So, over to you, at what age
do you think it is proper for a girl to start looking up to
marriage? If you should seek my opinion i will say she
should be of the age of 21 and above so as to give her
room for development

...People need to know about the side-effect of child-marriage....especially those northerners.....It is very common in the northern side....

Child-marriage or early marriage usually cause vesico-vaginal fistula or urinary incontinence....people suffering from this are usually neglected and stigmatised....

This is time when our leaders should increase the campaign on girl-child education...They need to enforce some laws against child-marriage...
