Obstetric fistula is a serious injury that can happen during childbirth, making it hard for a woman to go to the bathroom normally. It often happens in places without good medical care. This day encourages everyone to work together to stop it by spreading awareness, improving healthcare, and supporting the women who are affected. It's all about helping moms and babies have safer, healthier lives.
