Build a Kinder World, One Paw at a Time!*-Tejaswini Gulati (Psychologist)

November : 13th marks the World Kindness Day, a global celebration dedicated to promoting acts of generosity and compassion. Kindness as a concept is integral to human nature and entails empathising with, sharing, and alleviating the pain and suffering of one another. While the occasion encourages us to practice kindness towards ourselves and others, one often overlooked yet significant deed is showing kindness to the voiceless of our country. The condition of community dogs of India, often subject to hunger, disease, and abuse, mirrors the grave depravity and critical importance of extending our service beyond our kin.

India is home to an estimated 60 to 70 million stray dogs, and yet, the choice for pedigree dogs as companions still remains perniciously popular. While individuals are entitled to their right to choose, this choice, however, is rooted in ignorance. It lacks necessary background checks and entirely disregards the abuse and extreme cruelty that the backyard breeding industry thrives on. Advocate and Animal Rights Activist Niharika Kashyap stated that countless unethical breeders force female dogs to breed more than twice a year, which in essence is rape, just to make more money. Additionally, the newborn puppies are separated from their mothers and are sold at an alarmingly young age.

The reality of stray dogs similarly paints a very grim picture. There is ample evidence available on Google search for dog rape cases in India which grossly falls short to represent the actual number of such incidents in our country. Our community dogs battle for survival throughout their lives amidst traffic, worsening weather conditions, toxic waste products, scarcity of food and water, and rampant animal cruelty. Furthermore, the perception of housing societies in India is increasingly inclining towards viewing them as nuisances rather than as living and breathing creatures capable of feeling physical and mental pain. This attitude further extends to rescuers who work tirelessly to feed, rescue, and rehabilitate abandoned dogs while exposing themselves to the dangers of being at the receiving end of threats and violence. Overall, the feeling of contempt for stray dogs is leading to growing indifference and being out of touch with human qualities such as kindness, compassion, and care.

Rescuing stray dogs isn’t just about easing their suffering; it‘s about creating a culture of kindness and responsibility that guarantees a positive societal impact. Developing empathy toward animals has previously been associated with increased pro-social behaviour and improved interpersonal relationships. In India, where community spirit thrives in the form of shared compassion, we have an opportunity to build and extend this sense of unity to protect the most vulnerable members of our society—our community dogs.

This World Kindness Day, let’s pledge not just to be kind, but to be agents of change for those who cannot speak for themselves. Let’s ask ourselves, how can we create a world where these beings no longer have to cower in fear? They don’t need grand gestures; they need heartfelt actions that affirm their worth- a bowl of food, a warm space, and a touch that tells them they belong. 

In loving an animal, we discover something deeper within ourselves, and as the saying goes, until one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened.

Leading Gynecologist Dr Preeti Jindal edits ground-breaking medical treatise ‘Aesthetic Regenerative and Cosmetic Gynecology’

Book encapsulates 29 chapters with five chapters by Dr Preeti Jindal

Chandigarh, October 16, 2024:Dr Preeti Jindal, MD, DNB, MRCOG (UK), FICOG, and Director, The Touch Clinic, Mohali, has edited a pioneering medical treatise titled ‘Aesthetic Regenerative and Cosmetic Gynecology.’ The book has been published by JP Publishers & this is the first time an Indian publisher has introduced a book on this vital topic.

According to Dr Preeti, who is also the General Secretary of the Indian Society of Aesthetic and Reconstructive Gynaecology (InSARG): “This book aims to demystify ‘cosmetic gynecology’ which is a specialized field of medicine focused on enhancing the aesthetic appearance and functionality of the female genitalia. It addresses various physical and aesthetic concerns women may have, including issues like labial asymmetry, vaginal laxity, and age-related changes such as loss of volume or elasticity.”

It took Dr Preeti a year to put together the book spanning 195 pages and consisting of 29 chapters. The hardbound book has five chapters by Dr Preeti Jindal. Her chapters provide an overview of cosmetic gynaecology, HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) Electromagnetic Technology Chair, Labiaplasty procedures- Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure that reduces or increases the size of the labia - the vaginal lips; Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) for ovarian ageing, and extra peritoneal laser applications. 

Dr Preeti Jindal, a renowned expert in the field, and who is also is a Professor in the Department of Clinical Embryology and Reproductive Genetics at Rayat Bahra University, Punjab, said, “Procedures in cosmetic gynaecology range from non-surgical treatments like laser therapy, High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, to surgical interventions such as labiaplasty and vaginoplasty.”

In reply to a question, Dr Preeti Jindal said that the book addresses numerous unspoken women’s health issues and explores advanced treatment modalities. She added that with the increasing longevity of life, women now spend nearly a third of their lives in the postmenopausal phase. This stage of a woman’s life is marked by estrogen deficiency. Estrogen is a hormone that plays a key role in the development and regulation of the female reproductive system. “Women need to be very health conscious during the post menopause phase as this has prolonged due to increased life expectancy,” said Dr Preeti.

“Estrogen is essential for maintaining beauty, bone health, cardiovascular health, a healthy sexual life, and even urinary health. The deficiency of estrogen can lead to issues such as vaginal dryness, urinary leakage, recurrent infections, body pain, and loss of libido,” she said.

Several new treatment modalities such as CO2 Vaginal Laser, HIFU, Rich Plasma PRP therapy, provide effective solutions for these conditions. The book ‘Aesthetic Regenerative and Cosmetic Gynaecology’ educates practitioners on the safe use of these interventions and offers comprehensive training protocols. "It is a comprehensive guide for practicing regenerative medicine specialists,” added Dr Preeti.

Giving an example of regenerative gynecology Dr Preeti said: “These days’ couples delay childbirth, due to this with advancing age of females, egg production diminishes, impacting fertility. Here PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is useful. PRP stimulates tissue regeneration and improves ovarian function, thereby boosting the development of healthier eggs. This innovative approach is particularly beneficial for women who wish to have children late in life but their egg count is less."

It is noteworthy that Dr Preeti Jindal, who is also the Past President of the Mohali Obstetrics & Gynaecology Society (MOHOGS), was the co-editor of a book ‘Aesthetic and Regenerative Gynecology’ published 2 years back by the reputed international publisher Springer Nature .
