Summary/Abstract: The study was assumed to answer the question how to improve the women's health care at the primary level during prenatal, perinatal and postnatal period with the resulting giving birth to a healthy child and preservation of general and genital health of the woman and the consequent ability of nursing her child and giving birth to one more or more than one child. The investigation encompassed 300 patients (100 patients from each center: health centers at Temerin, Mali Iðoš and Ÿitište) of the generative age. The patients answered the anonymous questionnaire containing 24 questions by underlying one of the offered answers or by addition of a text where necessary-concerning the primary health care and its influence on reproduction of the population of Vojvodina. One half of investigated patients did not use contraceptive devices. 32,66% of the patients visited the health centers for the control of their pregnancies, 26,33% for the treatment of diseases, 11,33% for contraception advising, 2,66% for the treatment of infertility and 27,33% for other reasons. More than half of the polled patients thought that there was a need of improvement of the work in the women's health centers. The suggestions of 74,66% of the patients comprised organized lectures on different type of health care and family planning associated with the purchase of modern equipment for diagnostics (13,33%). The primary health care has a significant place in the process of reproduction of the population and these results point to the necessity of its more active role in the improvement of the women's health as well as in the implementation of the measures of the population policy.
