Marking International Urogynecology Day, Apollo Hospitals, Hyderabad, launched the Sakhi campaign and a dedicated clinic to provide specialised, confidential care for women suffering from pelvic health conditions that are often neglected or misdiagnosed.

Hyderabad: On the occasion of International Urogynecology Day, Apollo Hospitals, Hyderabad launched ‘Sakhi’ campaign and a dedicated urogynecology clinic for women seeking timely and specialised care for pelvic health problems.

The new facility will lay focus on women suffering from conditions such as urine leakage, involuntary loss of stools, repeated urinary infections, vaginal bulge due to prolapse, pelvic pain and intimacy-related concerns. Often, such health issues are dismissed as a normal part of aging or childbirth, leading to delayed treatment and avoidable distress.
