Data from 1995 to 2021 in India shows that for every woman who received an organ transplant, four men got transplants. Experts attribute this stark difference to economic and financial responsibilities, societal pressures, and ingrained preferences. While more men are cadaver donors, more women are living donors. The primary reasons for more women donors are the socio-economic pressure on them to be caretakers and givers in the family, and the hesitation of men, who are often the breadwinners, to undergo surgery.
