N2  - Intimate partner violence (IPV) is considered any type of behavior involving the premeditated use of physical, emotional, or sexual force between two people in an intimate relationship. The prevalence of health-seeking attitude towards IPV in India is very low among victims affected by it. The chances of facing violence or even in their maternal life were substantially high among women having lesser education or without any financial empowerment. Data have been quite supportive whenever elevated odds of risk of experiencing controlling behavior from their spouses were concerned. Safety strategies for violence programming could increase monitoring and evaluation efforts to reduce violence. Women with vulnerabilities like being marginalized, least resourced, and disabled are likely to suffer violence in an intimate relationship. Primary care physicians have a definitive role and involvement of other stakeholders like ward members and self-help groups to mitigate such occurrences.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
