Regular gynaecological check-ups and HPV vaccinations are emphasized as important measures for early detection and prevention of cervical cancer. Other gynae issues painful periods or recurring UTIs must not be ignored & seeking immediate medical intervention to improve overall quality of life is advisable.

 Dr Deepmala, Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist, Motherhood Hospitals, Electronic City, Bangalore said, “It’s truly uplifting to see women embracing joy while wearing colourful dresses of their choice. In today’s world, as women strive to meet both personal and professional demands, they often overlook their own happiness and well-being. Witnessing them enjoy some much needed ‘me time’ in an event like this, while raising awareness about health issues, is a source of pride for us at Motherhood Hospital. We are honoured to be part of an initiative that promotes both happiness and health awareness, contributing to a better society, stronger families, and healthier workplaces.”
