Women are foundation of the family but, while catering, looking after their family they do not take care of themselves. They don’t reach out for help before it’s late. It is necessary to see a doctor even when you are healthy so that if you have a problem you can do screening and address it at an early stage, said Gynaecologist, Dr Sophia Rodrigues.
