Menstrual Health App #40

Open Namya13Jain opened 2 years ago

Namya13Jain commented 2 years ago

I have thought of developing a Mobile Application which would contain information on various health problems which the females of different age groups might face. An elaborative information would be provided on the causes and symptoms as well. A detailed dietary plan would be provided along with some exercises and yogasanas. I have thought to include this because a person can live a healthy life by opting for some healthy lifestyle changes. The first special feature would be that all this information would be available in 22 regional languages apart from Hindi and English. This feature is specially made to target people who might not be too fluent in English and Hindi. Along with opting for a healthy lifestyle, some medication is always beneficial to eradicate a problem. A comprehensive tracking system would be developed using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning which would get the details of all the nearby hospitals and clinics along with the details of the gynecologists . I have incorporated this feature keeping in mind that still a major portion of Indians are not very familiar with the technology of GPS and Google Maps. The people booking consultation through our platform would avail a special discount of 25% on consultation fee. The next issue is the cost of Medical Tests which may even start from thousands of rupees. We would be providing a 50% discount on these tests at our partnered labs. This would allow even low income people to get the best treatment . Personal assistance would be available on our helpline number where the customers can discuss their issues and seek help from the doctors. They can also share their grievances if they are facing any social harassment regarding their Menstrual health and we would be helping them. Talking about the condition of Rural Areas where people may not have proper internet connectivity and desktops at their places, I have thought of a special plan to tackle all such issues. I would be taking the help of the Government to allocate funds for installing tablets in the local dispensaries so that the people can come there to seek information . A special female nurse would also be appointed to assist the people in operating the tablets and also helping them in the various health issues. Campaigns would be done to create awareness about the same so that every woman can seek benefit from the same.

What is the tech stack?

I wish to use flutter for creating the frontend of the app and firebase for its backend development. Use of python for Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence . Motivation behind this idea? One day, my mother told me that one lady in our neighborhood was facing the problem of irregular periods postpartum and her family members did not get her checkup done as they were not ready to even discuss it with anyone. She was also facing many other problems like backache, pain in the lower abdomen ,etc. They were hesitating in discussing a normal body change which that lady was experiencing. Later on ,some of my classmates also said that their menstrual health is neglected and often not addressed in their families . At that time , I realized that menstrual health is a serious issue that needs to be addressed. So, this motivated me to come up with this mobile application.
