WOMANHOOD

Your health is an investment, not an expense

The problem WOMANHOOD solves

There is a lot of fear of the stigma associated with reproductive health services, women often avoid making use of such services. This stigma imposes a great deal of mental stress, fear, and depression on patients and causes delays in the diagnosis and treatment of their conditions. The importance of women health is not just very low on priority but overlooked at a level that there is a lot of delay for diagnosis of even severe health issues such as PCOS and breast cancer, leave aside loads of generic diseases. Women should never feel ashamed about their health concerns whether that be their periods, reproductive health, menopause or anything else.

Integrating the Machine Learning models in the web application was the main challenge we faced. Extensive research, mentorship from seniors in hackdata and medium blogs helped us get through the bugs we were facing.

Challenges we ran into

Due to bias towards negative values in medical data, accuracy can be a bad metric as it gives an impression of a good performing model but in fact is biased, and won't perform well with other metrics. Used other metrics like precision score.

Choosing the best algorithm and various hypertune parameters for the same. We tested quite some models before finalising the one.
