Abstract: This study analyzes the impact of malnutrition on the health of pregnant women in Bugorhe, based on a survey conducted in January 2026 among 177 women. The results show that malnutrition, mainly linked to unemployment, low household income and limited access to nutritious food, contributes to miscarriages, stillbirths and low birth weight.
