How does societal stigma affect gynecological health?
Societal stigma around gynecological issues can lead to a reluctance to seek medical help. Many women feel embarrassed or ashamed to discuss their reproductive health openly due to cultural taboos. This can delay diagnosis and treatment, exacerbating conditions such as endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and even cancers. Removing this stigma requires comprehensive education and public awareness campaigns.
