AMB has been studied pathologically and anatomically but in recent years, its effects on various aspects of women’s life has been emphasized. AMB has an effect on women’s quality of life (QoL) and it varies woman to woman. Hence it is necessary to know different views of women regarding AMB to provide them with proper care and guidance.
