According to Indian consensus almost 48.5% of the total population is females, with 48.1% stays in urban and 48.6% in rural areas. Due to current lifestyle or work related issues illnesses are increasing in female population. The Heart disease and Stroke remains at the top in this population (WHO, 2011), obesity cannot be avoided (High fat percentage) which leads to too many issues like PCOD, Knee arthritis, Back pain, complications during pregnancy etc. Many organisations are now creating awareness programs for womens health to rural areas, but unfortunately urban population are the most affected compared to rural area.
