ABSTRACT
The study investigated and analyzed the HIV risk practices amongst women of child-bearing age in Owan East Local Government Area of Edo State. A sample of 160 child-bearing women were randomly selected from the target population using the multistage (cluster) sampling technique. A 15-item close-ended multiple choice questionnaire was designed by the researcher for data collection. The findings revealed that Owan East Women of child-bearing age engage in HIV risk practices and that level of education has a significant influence on the HIV risk practices amongst Owan East women of child-bearing area. The study further showed that the women do not use condom and some indulge in sex for material reward. It was concluded that efforts should be made to provide health education to women on healthy sexual behaviour: the benefits of condom use and the need to indulge in safe sex.
