Abstract

Background:Depression in women results in elevated morbidity rates, functional impairment, diminished quality of life, and an increased risk of suicide. Numerous obstacles impede access to mental health treatment for women in India. Digital mental health solutions can bridge the treatment gap, but it is important to tailor these solutions to the context and to end-users.
