So let's open this Pandora's box and know more about what endometriosis is, why it happens, what one suffers from, and what are certain myths around this condition.

Women's Day- Why am I here?

Today, I am sharing with you the idea behind this podcast and my thoughts on Women's day.

Even with decades of notable progress and significant gains on the international forum, women and vulva owners—both in India and around the world— still find gender equality elusive. Women exercising or even seeking their basic rights is interpreted as a direct and destabilizing challenge to existing power structures. Regardless of a woman’s education or abilities or experience, the patriarchal nature fosters the perception that women are less competent and less qualified than men. Honestly, it is not possible to name just one challenge, one issue, or one forgotten right, but it becomes necessary for me, as a Gynec, and for you too, to reflect on it, speak about it, and make a change one at a time.
