La violencia obstétrica es un obstáculo que a menudo se pasa por alto para la calidad del servicio de atención médica durante la maternidad y no ha recibido mucha atención en la India. En este artículo, nuestro objetivo es estudiar las experiencias y los impactos de la violencia obstétrica en mujeres de la India durante el período de maternidad. Se entrevistó a un total de 256 mujeres en dos distritos (Sambalpur y Bargarh) en el estado de Odisha, India, entre las edades de 18 y 35 años que han tenido su último parto en los últimos 5 años. Encontramos que 83 mujeres (32.4 por ciento) han experimentado violencia obstétrica (indigna atención médica y abusos físicos), y la prevalencia es mayor entre las mujeres de castas inferiores y grupos socioeconómicos más bajos. Los resultados también indican que la violencia obstétrica tiene consecuencias duraderas, crónicas y fatales para la salud y muchas víctimas también informaron un grave deterioro en la relación conyugal y familiar. Es un problema de derechos humanos que debe prevenirse y erradicarse.
