Research examines access to fertility services in Ghana

A 2026 conference abstract includes authors affiliated with SamJ Specialist Hospital.

The research

A European Journal of Public Health conference abstract includes Princess Akweley Kotey and Samuel Amo-Mensah among its authors, with affiliations to SamJ Specialist Hospital.

The survey involved 300 people using specialist fertility services in Ghana. It describes cost, geographic access and stigma as barriers, while identifying social support as helpful to people seeking care.

The abstract addresses access to services across facilities. It does not report SamJ’s IVF success rate or compare the hospital’s clinical outcomes with other providers.
