This paper examines the reproductive health situation of migrants in China. In particular, through the evaluation of three sets of data it evaluates the self-reported reproductive health of migrant women; the maternal health and the use health services by migrant women; and contraceptive use among migrant men. Through their evaluation of the data, the authors identify three major themes: 1) migrants either have limited access to health services or poor health-seeking behavior; 2) they have limited access to services compared to local residents; and 3) their knowledge about reproductive health service is inadequate.
