According to recent research, the coronavirus pandemic has had a significant impact on the daily lives of women around the world.

One year after the coronavirus pandemic began, according to a Lancet research, the number of people suffering from sadness and anxiety had climbed by more than a quarter.

There has been an increase in cases, but it is the fact that many of these cases are women that has medical specialists concerned.

In the year 2020, there will be 374 million people suffering from anxiety disorders all over the world. Coronavirus pandemic-related new cases accounted for roughly 76 million of them.

Nearly 52 million of the 76 million more instances were in women, whereas just 24 million were in men, according to this number.

Women have reported mental health concerns at a rate of 83% throughout the pandemic years, according to a new study in the Headway Mental Health Index.

Pregnant women, women who have recently given birth, and women who have experienced traumas such as miscarriage or domestic violence are the most susceptible to depression and anxiety episodes.

Another key factor contributing to the rise in mental health difficulties among women is the increased responsibility for childcare and domestic duties. It became increasingly difficult for women to maintain a household and a career during the pandemic because of the strain of juggling both responsibilities. It was also revealed that men were less likely to help women in many households.

A majority of women with children under 12 say they have difficulty balancing their career and personal lives, as well as taking care of their emotional well-being.

Many existing inequities and social determinants of mental health issues, and the supporting processes to enhance mental health in the COVID-19 pandemic globally, have been aggravated by this pandemic,” Alize Ferrari, from the University of Queensland said. When it comes to strengthening mental health services, it’s imperative that legislators take into account underlying concerns like these.
