01. Introduction
1.1 Background
Two out of three women worldwide are currently affected by humanity's most vulnerable sickness. The
symptoms include anemia, malnutrition, intense weariness, increased infection susceptibility and
premature death. In addition, the illness is frequently reported from mother to child with a much
greater incidence of transmission among women compared to men. Poverty is that sickness.[ CITATION
Coh94 \l 1033 ].

Poverty and socioeconomic position have a universal influence on women's health. In the 1980s, the
social, economic, and political components of women's health were sharply reduced by a deepening
worldwide economic crisis. Women give significant economic support to their families through revenue
earned in agriculture, informal and formal labor markets and in rising multinational sectors in all
societies, alone or in partnership with spouses. Women are generally struck hardest by environmental
deterioration initially. In the gathering of natural resources rural women are always engaged.[ CITATION
Jod93 \l 1033 ].

In Pakistan, poverty has risen during the 1990's, following a decrease in the last two decades. Pakistan
has, nonetheless, a very frightening load of transmissible, mostly poverty-related illnesses. In particular,
malnutrition and maternal risk worsen these disorders.[ CITATION Bat15 \l 1033 ].

One must acknowledge that if we fight poverty on a daily basis, women and children and, thus, our
whole society cannot be maximally good health. Given the cultural, political, and socio-economic
contexts that reflect women's health, people need to play a leading role in supporting change in all the
elements contributing to women's poverty and in promoting women to challenge and change of
discrimination and gender inclination[ CITATION Coh94 \l 1033 ].

Poverty and other types of inequality affect the health and development of the people and population.
While absolute poverty has fallen in recent years, there is an increasing worry about the feminization of
poverty and the effects of globalisation, which has been aggravated in and among affluent and poor in
the same era. There is rising worry over this significant societal problem. In all regions gender inequality
remains, women and girls continue to be over-represented among the world's poor. This indicates that
the economic, political and social benefits of globalization cannot always be achieved by women.
[ CITATION Suz06 \l 1033 ].

1.2 The Problem Statement

Research has consistently demonstrated the association of low income and low socio-economic position
with increased number of illness. As poverty itself is now on the rise in our nation, especially among
women, kids and minority groups, we must pay more consideration to the hazards associated with
poverty in terms of health. This gap is identified and therefore the research will be conducted to know
the impact of poverty on women’s health in the rural areas of larkana city.
