About WE CARE

Women Endocrine Care & ESI Obesity Week

The Journey of WE CARE
WE CARE began in December 2021 as an initiative to address women’s health concerns in endocrine and metabolic disorders. A woman’s life spans significant biological transitions, from puberty and pregnancy to menopause, each with important health implications.
In addition, women experience chronic illnesses differently and often face psychosocial challenges, including limited access to healthcare. WE CARE seeks to highlight these dimensions and promote a more equitable approach to endocrine care.
Launched as a virtual meeting in 2022, WE CARE has since evolved into a much-anticipated annual conference—held in Mumbai (2023), Bengaluru (2024), and Bhubaneswar (2025).
