In rural areas, women often face challenges accessing vital healthcare during pregnancy and menstruation due to financial constraints and time limitations. To address this, a groundbreaking wearable device— comprising a smart band and belt— to monitor women's health throughout their pregnancy and menstrual cycles is proposed.The smart band features a heart rate sensor and blood oxygen monitor, providing real-time insights into overall health. The smart belt, equipped with nichrome wire technology, acts as a pain reliever for menstrual cramps and includes an accelerometer to monitor fetal movements during pregnancy. This device aims to empower women by offering a comprehensive solution to their health concerns.The smart band and belt, seamlessly integrated into daily life, offer a cost-effective and accessible means for women in rural areas to monitor their health. By combining technology with a user-friendly design, this innovative solution seeks to empower women, encouraging proactive maternal and menstrual care. This conference paper delves into the development and potential impact of this wearable innovation, envisioning improved health outcomes for women in underserved communities.
