Como capital de Colombia, encontrará muchos recursos de atención médica en Bogotá. Sin embargo, debe conocer la complejidad de la salud reproductiva y sexual en el país. Por un lado, Colombia es una nación principalmente católica, y muchos colombianos le dan gran importancia a la Iglesia Católica. Como resultado, algunos personal médico pueden tener puntos de vista sociales tradicionales, que puede afectar la forma en que interactúan con los pacientes. Además, la sociedad colombiana es tradicionalmente patriarcal, y algunas mujeres pueden tener dificultades en lograr plena autonomía e independencia, aunque esto varía con cada individuo, familia y comunidad. <ref>[http://www.everyculture.com/Bo-Co/Colombia.html Countries and Their Cultures: Colombia]</ref>
As the capital of Colombia, you will find many health care resources in Bogota. However, you should be aware of the complex picture regarding reproductive and sexual health care in the country. On the one hand, Colombia is a primarily Catholic nation, and many Colombians attach great importance to the Catholic Church. As a result, certain health care personnel may hold traditional social views, which may impact how they interact with patients. Furthermore, Colombian society is traditionally patriarchal, and some women may struggle to realize full autonomy and independence, though this certainly varies by each individual, family, and community.<ref>[http://www.everyculture.com/Bo-Co/Colombia.html Countries and Their Cultures: Colombia]</ref> On the other hand, Colombia has seen a massive expansion of its family planning services in the past few decades, and the fertility rate has fallen from 6 children per woman in the 1960s to just above replacement level (i.e. about 2 children per woman), as of 2017. This is largely due to increased literacy, family planning services, and urbanization in the country.<ref>[https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/co.html CIA World Factbook - Colombia]</ref> Meanwhile, homosexuality, gay marriage, and gender change are all legal in Colombia.<ref>[https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/co.html LGBT Rights in Colombia]</ref>
