Dr. Sunil Eshwar, Lead Obstetrics & Gynecology, Aster RV Hospital addressed the participants, “Breast and cervical cancers are detected in third or fourth stage whereas in most developed countries these are found and treated while the cancer is still in the first or second stage. This International Women’s Day, we urge our women to pay attention to early signs of cancer such as lumps on the breast, unusual nipple discharge, sharp pain or dimpling in the breast, unusual menstrual bleeding or vaginal discharge, or painful sexual intercourse and seek advice for it.”
Ms. MJ Bharathi, President, Amruthavarshini Mahila Sangha, “Women are pillars of the society and if she can take care of her health, she takes care of society also. We look forward to participating in more such awareness programs for our women in the future.”
