Health is a vital component of I human capital and human resources. Women constituting 50 percent of the world's human resources play an important role in the socio-economic development of nation.

Physical status and wellbeing of women are indicated by maternal mortality (MMR) and morbidity rates, infant mortality rates (IMRs) life expectancy, fertility rates, work participation rates age at marriage malnutrition etc.
