Bayer Celebrates 60 Years of Progress in Empowering Women

"Bayer's commitment to women's health dates back more than 90 years. As a trusted partner and leader in Women's Health, Bayer has been supporting women's health and family planning needs for the past decades and is committed to helping women achieve their aspirations for the next 60 years. We recognize the need to overcome social barriers and discuss topics like contraception and endometriosis which concern women's health and society at large", says Manoj Saxena, Managing Director Bayer Zydus Pharma.

This year, with the ongoing pandemic, where a typical Indian homemaker caters to both young and old, many women are exposed to greater health risks, often at the expense of their own health. Although many women play empowered roles in all spheres of life, they often ignore and keep silent about their own health issues.

In India, where women's health remains a primary concern, the means to receive credible and reliable information is often limited. It is therefore time to focus on what women look forward to – for themselves, for their health, for their families, and for every woman. Not just today but for the next 60 years and beyond, women should be empowered to fulfill their healthcare needs and make informed decisions about their health.
