Thirty-three percent of Indian women suffer from urinary incontinence
In a recent study, doctors have found that one in three Indian women experience urinary incontinence at some point in their lives. This condition often goes undiscussed due to cultural taboos and societal pressures, leading many women to suffer in silence.
Dr. Sarika Pandya from AINU highlighted the prevalence of urinary incontinence among Indian women, emphasizing the impact it can have on daily life and relationships. She urged women to seek treatment and not suffer in silence.
Dr. Banu Priya from Kamineni Hospital stressed the importance of breaking the stigma surrounding urinary incontinence and offering support to women battling this condition. She called for a more compassionate approach towards addressing this issue.
Studies have shown that over 50 million women in India are affected by urinary incontinence, yet many remain silent due to societal stigma. Dr. Kajaree Giri from Amor Hospital emphasized the need for awareness and support to help women reclaim their dignity and autonomy.
From innovative treatments to community support networks, there are various resources available to help Indian women combat urinary incontinence. By promoting open dialogue and advocating for change, women can regain control over their bodies and lives.
