3+ min ago (902+ words) Whether driven by economic stress, lifestyle shifts, environmental anxieties or changing values, an increasing number of people are deciding that having children doesn't fit their lives. The question now is not just "Will they have children?" but "Should they?" Young couples in global cities often talk of saving for years before they consider starting a family. The delay pushes childbirth into the thirties when fertility naturally declines reducing the likelihood of larger families. In the UNFPA'YouGov survey covering 14 countries, nearly 40% of respondents cited "financial limitations" as the main barrier to having the family they desire. For decades, India has benefited from a youthful population and a potential "demographic dividend." As of 2025, 68% of the population falls in the working-age group (15'64), giving the country a window of economic opportunity, says the UNFPA report.

The model opened up about her years-long battle with endometriosis and how it managed to go undiagnosed for a long time before she recently got surgery. "I had really painful periods," the 27-year-old shared on the She MD podcast Dec. 9. "And I saw so many different gynecologists and no one mentioned endometriosis."

This transformative measure has propelled India's status as one of the world's largest and least-studied social-policy experiments. The cash transfers scheme was set rolling in Goa, when it launched an unconditional cash transfer scheme to women in 2013. Seeing the positives that could be gained by political parties, other state governments followed suit. Ironically, there was no uniformity in earmarking of funds. The importance of this scheme came to the fore during the Covid-hit crisis. Assam launched its own version for…...

The deck is stacked against them and men are refusing to play the game. When you see…...

53+ min ago (246+ words) Sexual violence against children and intimate partner violence against women are two of the most devastating yet persistently underrecognized global health challenges and rank among the top risks for mortality and morbidity worldwide, according to research published in The Lancet today. These findings fundamentally challenge the persistent view of SVAC and IPV as primarily social or criminal justice issues and underscore their status as major public health priorities." Dr. Luisa Sorio Flor, lead author and assistant professor at IHME Researchers incorporated new evidence into the GBD 2023 study, showing SVAC and IPV are linked to a wider spectrum of health outcomes than previously recognized and resulting in significantly greater estimates of health loss.

1+ hour, 15+ min ago (204+ words) A pro-life group on Tuesday demanded the removal of Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary, arguing that the agency's abortion pill review has been delayed over concerns about the upcoming midterm elections. Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, alleged that Makary is "severely undermining" the Trump administration and its "pro-life agenda" by pushing back a mifepristone study, The Washington Times reported. Dannenfelser was reportedly reacting to a Bloomberg report that indicated Makary had requested behind-the-scenes to put the study off until after November 2026. "Enough is enough: FDA Commissioner Makary should be fired immediately," Dannenfelser said in a statement. "The FDA is doing nothing while every single day abortion drugs take the lives of children, put women and girls at serious risk, empower abusers and trample state pro-life laws." The Trump administration has claimed that the study was…...

Ashley Hinson, R-Iowa, would require states to make biological fathers cover at least half of pregnancy- and childbirth-related out-of-pocket medical costs, a move supporters say could ease financial burdens on expectant mothers. The Supporting Healthy Pregnancy Act would join other federal proposals aimed at improving maternal health. The Supporting Healthy Moms and Babies Act"seeks to expand Medicaid, CHIP, and private insurance coverage for childbirth. And the HEALTH for MOM Act would promote coordinated care under Medicaid. State-level initiatives also address maternal mental health and postpartum support, all aiming to improve access, lower costs, and provide better care for mothers. Under Hinson's bill, the expectant mother must first request payment before the father becomes legally bound to contribute. The bill explicitly excludes abortion costs, according to Fox News....
