    I read the course contents and watched the videos completely. It was an amazing journey of learning. I learned about new issues and health-related problems for women. The course provides an exclusive introduction that is reader-friendly and informative. I felt as if I was physically present while watching the video lectures. I will recommend this course to my friend circle to be taken and learned by them for their personal development and applied experience.
    Good luck to all team members who developed this course!
