Rural, illiterate and insured women: The disproportionate rate of hysterectomies

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 1 January 2025
A study reveals that rural, illiterate, and obese Indian women with health insurance are more likely to undergo hysterectomy, with agricultural workers being particularly at risk. The procedure is often advised unnecessarily by private practitioners. High prevalence is noted in states like Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, driven by prolonged excessive bleeding, fibroids, and menstrual taboos.

‘As Soon As The Prisoner Swap Is Over, We Will....’ Russia’s Most SURPRISING Move Amid POW Swap

Russia will present a draft peace proposal to Ukraine once the ongoing POW exchange of 1,000 prisoners per side concludes, said Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. The proposal stems from progress made during the recent Istanbul talks, the first direct negotiations since 2022. Lavrov emphasized that the document outlines conditions for a “lasting comprehensive settlement.” President Putin confirmed that the next step, agreed upon with President Trump, involves a memorandum defining the peace roadmap. Both Moscow and Kiev have committed to resuming talks after draft proposals are exchanged. #RussiaUkraine #PeaceProposal #POWSwap #PutinTrump #IstanbulTalks #UkraineConflict #Lavrov #Ceasefire #PeaceDeal #RussiaNews #UkraineNews #ConflictResolution #InternationalTalks #Diplomacy #GlobalPolitics #Moscow #Kiev #WarInUkraine #Putin #Trump Also Read Telangana CM Revanth Reddy Meets K.
