The study aimed to determine the factors associated with the receipt of adequate ANC among pregnant women in Rwanda. Findings suggest that the prevalence of women who receive adequate ANC remains low in Rwanda. Effective interventions to increase access and utilization of adequate ANC are urgently needed to further improve the country's maternal and child health outcomes.
