The study explores the socio-cultural contexts of health information seeking among women in Nsukka, Southeast Nigeria. Studies have shown that an understanding of the contexts of health information seeking is fundamental to appreciating the disparities in women’s capacities to adopt healthy behavior. We argue that the disparities make information opportunity more a risk factor than just a factor of information access. The study therefore attempts to ascertain the relative opportunities open to women to seek health information in view of several health constraints experienced by women as underprivileged individuals in the Nigerian context. Using descriptive and correlation analysis, we examined data from 591 reproductive-age women from four primary healthcare hospitals in Nsukka. Results show that more than half of the women reported low information-seeking opportunities. Respondents aged 26–35 reported higher information-seeking opportunities than their counterparts aged 14-25 and 36-45. Household factors scored higher (r =.981) than all other opportunity dimensions raised in the study. Finance ranked first as the factor negatively affecting information-seeking opportunities. We conclude that the influence of economic status, household opportunities and the number of children in a household highlight the link between the need for population controls, family health support initiatives, and women’s health.
