LAHORE: The Post Graduate Medical Institute Principal Prof Dr Muhammad Al-Fareed Zafar has said that New Year 2023 needs to be celebrated as the year of women’s rights and self-reliance so that women can contribute to the economic development and national prosperity by improving their own health. Moreover, awareness about their health and wellbeing would not only minimise the women’s problems but they would also get equal opportunities for treatment and health care.
He expressed these views while addressing a seminar on the topic of Women’s Health and Self-Reliance at Lahore General Hospital, in which Prof Faheem Afzal, Dr Misbah Javed, Dr Laila Shafiq, Dr Mehwish Ilyas and Dr Rizwana Tariq also expressed their views. Dr Muhammad Safdar and Dr Abdul Aziz were also present in the seminar along with young doctors.
Prof Al-Fareed Zafar said that normally women in the society hesitate to discuss their health issues especially gynecological diseases, which creates complications for them which are also dangerous to their health. He said that there is a dire need to create self-confidence in every woman regarding gynecological issues so that they can get timely medical advice from doctors and treatment as well.
Dr Laila Shafiq and medical experts contributed that women during menstruation and pregnancy face many problems about which which it is necessary that mothers must give their daughters basic information. Moreover, girls should be aware of the issues so that they don’t face any problem.
Principal PGMI and renowned Gynecologist Prof Al-Fareed Zafar said that normally our women are forced to get amulet and other tips instead of getting their proper medical check-up done in case of childlessness, whereas they need the guidance of a good gynecologist. He added that the formation of glands and cysts in the uterus and ovaries has become a common disease, which not only causes irregularity in women, but is also a major reason for not having children and women need a specialist instead of quack for this purpose so it is important to consult a gynecologist and get treatment.
