New Delhi: A recent health study by Redcliffe Labs has revealed a significant increase in lifestyle disorders among women, with conditions such as anaemia, thyroid disorders, diabetes, and lipid imbalances becoming more prevalent. The findings, based on health data from over one million women, highlight the urgent need for early detection and preventive healthcare measures.
The study indicates that one in five women is at risk of thyroid disorders, which can cause fatigue, metabolic disturbances, and hormonal imbalances. Additionally, three in five women are at risk of anaemia, making them three times more vulnerable than men. If left untreated, anaemia can lead to chronic fatigue, weakened immunity, and long-term health complications.
Besides anaemia and thyroid issues, a growing number of women are also being diagnosed with diabetes and lipid disorders, both of which are closely linked to lifestyle factors. If not managed properly, these conditions can contribute to severe health problems, including cardiovascular diseases.
“The increasing incidence of lifestyle disorders among women is a serious concern that cannot be ignored,” said Aditya Kandoi, CEO & Founder of Redcliffe Labs. “Women often prioritize their families’ well-being over their own health, but regular check-ups and simple lifestyle changes can help prevent long-term complications.”
Experts emphasize the importance of preventive healthcare, urging women to focus on balanced nutrition, regular physical activity, and stress management to mitigate health risks. Routine screenings and early medical intervention can play a crucial role in managing non-communicable diseases.
“The growing burden of lifestyle-related diseases calls for a proactive approach to healthcare,” Kandoi added. “Awareness, early diagnosis, and proactive steps today can lead to a healthier future.”
With an increasing number of women affected by these conditions, health professionals stress the need for better awareness and accessible healthcare options to address these pressing concerns.
