Women are equally being exposed to the world’s hardships and challenges while still being the strong- root of the household, trying their best to have the best of both worlds. The amount of pressure they go through each day may cause various health issues. Women are selfless by nature, specially a woman who reaches the maturity of a mother. They often tend to care for the family than taking care of herself.
Maybe at times they might give up on their daily jog, gym hours, and doctor’s appointments or even skip a few meals which will ultimately result poor health or even deathly diseases. If women are given the opportunities to enjoy life and to improve on their health then the family as a whole will reap the benefits.
‘’Health is the ultimate profit’’ to every living being without any doubt, within that spectrum, women’s health is a constantly discussed topic with the increasing number of breast cancers and emerging diseases such as genital herpes, arthritis and infertility. Parallel to the upcoming World Women’s Day the WHO highlighted that some of the most critical areas for Women’s health being Cancer, Reproductive Health, Maternal Health, HIV, Mental Health and Noncommunicable Diseases. Creating awareness and providing necessary medical treatment methods to eradicate the potential threats was mainly highlighted.
