Many Indian women have come from circumstances in which women have limited access to healthcare. Traditionally, there has been discrimination towards women in decision-making; access to resources such as food, education and health care; job opportunities; and in child-rearing and parenting. However, women's health in rural areas affects everything in their environment from their families to their economies and vice versa. A woman's health, especially among the poor and illiterate, is often neglected not just by her family but by the woman herself. She is taught not to complain and if she does then she is directed either to use condiments in the kitchen or try faith healing.

]]> Women who conceive right after a miscarriage have healthy pregnancies http://WomenChalet.com/article.asp?articleid=94706 Mon, 9 Aug 2010 12:36 GMT http://WomenChalet.com/article.asp?articleid=94706 A recent study has suggested a review of the WHO study whereby women have been advised that if they have experienced a miscarriage they should wait for at least six months before trying to conceive.

It has also rejected the guideline that women who have a miscarriage have a higher chance of having a second miscarriage in addition to complications in a subsequent pregnancy.

The new study in fact tries to establish that women who get pregnant within six months of a miscarriage have the best chance of having healthy pregnancies with the least number of complications. According to the study doctors, the duration for which couples should wait before trying to conceive again is not fixed; with some saying the wait at all is unnecessary.
