Women in Sri Lanka form approximately 57 percent of a total estimated population of 21 million. Out of the total economically active population of 8.5 million persons, women employee percentage is 33.4 percent and the rest is either fully involved in domestic care or going through difficult situations being working mothers or single mothers who battle each day to keep a balanced life yet often fail to do so thus neglect their own issues mostly being health.
