Abstract

Abstract The past decade in India has seen a growing concern with women’s health in developing countries as evidenced by the safe motherhood initiatives, and by the adoption of women’s health perspectives in strategies like family planning and women in development issues. The burden of disease also falls very unevenly on different sections of the population. There is variation in pattern of morbidity among different states and also it falls unequally on women. Therefore it is important to study the variation pattern across states of India and the prevalence rate of morbidity gender wise.
