Every monthly donation helps women like Sharada access gynecology care
Sharda Devi, 42 is a resident of Abu road. Sharada's husband Girdhar Parihar, works as a plumber and has an unstable income. Sharda began to suffer from excessive bleeding and abdominal pain. She went to local doctors for treatment but due to wrong diagnosis, she continued to remain in pain.
A Global Hospital & Research Centre (GHRC) field worker identified her during a regular visit and referred her to Global Hospital. After a specialized gynecologist consultation and tests, she was diagnosed with Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding.
She was recommended for a hysterectomy for removal of both ovaries and Fallopian tubes. The consultation, stay and surgery was performed free of cost. Sharda is now free of pain and has recovered well under the able care of a gynecologist.

Story from the field
Sunari, aged 39, suffered from lower abdominal pain, heavy discharge during menses and backache since four years. When the pain became unbearable, one day Sunari stepped into Global Hospital to consult the gynaecologist. Dr Kanaklata Mishra examined her, and requisitioned a blood test for Sunari. Her blood sugar was within the normal range but her blood counts were somewhat abnormal. She tested negative for hepatitis B and hepatitis C and HIV. Her ESR count (which is a marker of inflammation in the body) was borderline. Dr Mishra found a small cyst in her ovary, and an ulcer inside her uterus and pelvis. Sunari was prescribed medication for her condition and advised to inform the doctor of her progress. Sunari comes from a family of seven members. Her husband, Kala, was in an accident three years ago. He suffered injuries over his whole body and a leg fracture. He has never fully recovered from that so he doesn't work. Her family rears goats. She relies on what her brother-in law earns and on her own earning, she occasionally works as a daily wage hand. Sunari has three daughters and one son. One of her daughters and her son are school-going. Sunari lives in Nichali Fali, Uplagarh. She is of tribal origin.
