Abstract

Women health has remained comparatively a neglected area. Women utilize health care resources to a lesser degree than men and they get affected by various types of diseases. Also, awareness regarding diseases, its symptoms and risks are insufficient among them. The objective of the paper is to examine the extent of diseases among women and their expenditure level on diseases. The Chi square test has been applied to know the association between various socio economic characteristics of the women respondents. The socio economic characteristics like age of women respondents, their housing structure, family structure, education level, employment status and income level have been examined. It has been found that women have been ignoring their health issues and spending very less on diseases. On the basis of findings of this study the women education and income level are required to enhance.
