Statement of Need

The woman is the heart of the family and can only achieve true happiness by self-donation to her husband and self-sacrifice for her children. Outside of the home, women lend a civility to work that has a positive effect on society. Women set the standards for the morals of a culture. We must strive to find the best way to assist women to achieve their full potential. By evaluating and treating female health problems in cooperation with their biology and psychology, we can help women appreciate their dignity and their families and society will benefit as well.
