  • Rising Obesity Among Indian Women Threatens Fertility: Dr. S. Vyjayanthi Weighs In

    Rising Obesity Among Indian Women Threatens Fertility: Dr. S. Vyjayanthi Weighs In

    Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], September 25: Nearly 50% of Indian women aged between 35 and 49 years are now classified as overweight or obese, according to a recent study reported by The Times of India. The findings raise critical questions about women’s reproductive health and fertility outcomes, especially as more couples in urban India turn to assisted reproductive technologies (ART) like IVF.

    Dr. S. Vyjayanthi, internationally renowned Fertility Specialist and Director of MotherToBe Fertility Centre, explains that obesity has a direct and multi-faceted impact on reproductive health. “Obesity affects ovulation, egg quality, and even the receptivity of the uterus. Women with higher body mass index (BMI) often face irregular menstrual cycles, higher prevalence of PCOS, and lower IVF success rates,” she said.

    The Link Between Obesity and Fertility

    Medical research indicates that obesity disrupts hormonal balance, leading to excess insulin and androgens, both of which interfere with egg development. This not only lowers the chances of natural conception but also diminishes IVF outcomes.

    “In obese women, ovarian stimulation requires higher doses of fertility medications, and yet the egg yield and quality may remain poor. Implantation rates are lower, and miscarriage risks are higher compared to women within a healthy BMI range,” Dr. Vyjayanthi noted.

    PCOS and Obesity – A Double Burden

    Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), a leading cause of infertility among Indian women, is strongly associated with obesity. Excess body fat worsens insulin resistance and triggers more severe PCOS symptoms.

    Dr. Vyjayanthi emphasized that “Obesity and PCOS together create a vicious cycle, where one condition aggravates the other. Women may experience irregular periods, excessive hair growth, acne, and difficulty conceiving. Addressing weight management is often the first crucial step in improving fertility in PCOS patients.”

    Lifestyle, Diet, and Weight Loss Strategies

    Encouragingly, even modest weight loss of 5–10% can significantly improve fertility outcomes. Dr. Vyjayanthi advocates a holistic approach that combines diet, exercise, and medical support where needed.

    She advises:

    • Balanced Diet: Focus on whole grains, lean proteins, vegetables, fruits, and foods with a low glycemic index.

    • Regular Physical Activity: At least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week can help regulate hormones and improve ovulation.

    • Stress Management: Practices such as yoga and mindfulness reduce cortisol levels, which indirectly support fertility.

    • Medical Supervision: For women with PCOS or severe obesity, guided weight management programs may include medications or, in select cases, bariatric surgery before attempting fertility treatments.

    Why Obesity Matters in IVF

    IVF success rates are significantly lower in obese women compared to women of healthy weight. Embryo transfer outcomes, pregnancy rates, and live birth rates all decline as BMI increases.

    “At MotherToBe Fertility, we encourage patients to achieve their best possible health before starting IVF. Our team supports women with nutrition guidance, exercise counseling, and endocrinology input to optimize their chances of success,” Dr. Vyjayanthi shared.

    As obesity rates rise in India, fertility specialists stress the urgent need for awareness. With delayed motherhood becoming more common among working women, Dr. Vyjayanthi believes education and preventive measures are key.

    Fertility is not just about technology like IVF; it’s also about overall health. By addressing lifestyle factors such as obesity early, women can preserve their fertility, improve pregnancy outcomes, and safeguard long-term health,” she concluded.

  • Dr Pravin Sankhwar Honored with Lifetime Achievement Award for Pioneering Work in Power Distribution and EV Research

    Dr Pravin Sankhwar Honored with Lifetime Achievement Award for Pioneering Work in Power Distribution and EV Research

    New Delhi [India], September 25: Yet another time, the excellence attained from high accomplishments from leading and renowned experts in electrical power distribution came to the limelight from Dr. (hon.)Pravin Sankhwar won the Exceptional Leadership (Lifetime Achievement Award) in August 2025. Previously in 2024, Pravin Sankhwar won the Global Recognition Award, the Titan Award, & Stevie Award for his outstanding research and original contributions in the electrical power industry through his impact from participation through published research journal papers, books, and professional societies as a leading professional. His research in “Evaluation of transition to 100% electric vehicles (EVs) by 2052 in the United States” elaborates on how the transition would look in the power industry from large-scale adoption of modern loads such as electric vehicles. The concepts proposed by Pravin’s research in energy management in modern power systems and using the DC power distribution system to solve the power resilience for rural and urban areas have received widespread attention during international conferences by Hubbell at Nashville, TN. The registered patent on power distribution system further validates how modern power distribution can be reshaped into small DC power systems by eliminating losses from DC to AC and AC to DC conversion cycles. Widespread attention from industry experts in the power engineering industry and business owners in rural India resulted in the implementation by the largest marriage hall “Moti Mahal Mandapam” at Akbarpur Kanpur, Dehat, for a resilient power system.

    Lifetime accomplishments conferred with Honorary Doctorate not only commence from his decade-long industry experience and influence but also from the very beginning, from deep roots while gaining education at Malaviya National Institute of Technology in 2011. Having obtained B Tech in Electrical Engineering from an institution of national importance had allowed Pravin to contribute towards the energy sector in India when starting his career with Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL). Together with his innovative excellence achieved working for HPCL and securing an academic position as a Master’s student in Michigan Technological University, Pravin’s global impact increased to the next level. Later he contributed to United States economy between 2018-2025 by working for global organizations such as WSP USA Inc. Being a licensed professional engineer with notable engagement with infrastructure projects in United States for electrical power distribution systems design in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings elevated him to become a leading professional. His winning these prestigious awards has drawn many cover stories in magazines such as Passion Vista for “Men Leaders to Look up to in 2024”, Passionate Magazine for “Professional Electrical Engineer’, and Business Frontier for “Foundations of Future: Designing Resilient and Intelligent Systems”.

    The research by Pravin Sankhwar, published in Sustainable Energy Research, highlights the importance of gaining energy efficiency from the use of electric vehicles: “Modelling a transportation system wherein the majority of consumers rely on public transportation systems promises reduced consumption of EVs, thereby reducing energy consumption and, thus, demand. So, a modern transportation system must strive towards energy efficiency by growing means of sharing resources.” Pravin has also laid out the foundations of electrical safety from large-scale development of EV Charging hubs by clearly laying out the design as: “Let us consider 1000 customers visit each hub per day, and each customer utilises around 100 kWh during an ultra or hyper charging session. By addition of five ultra-fast chargers and six hyper-fast chargers, an installed capacity of ~3kW requires a BESS of ~15.6kW to supply three days of energy for 1000 customers. An additional 2 days of storage may be supplied back to the grid when BESS acts as a DG source.” And power schematics for residential power as presented during the IEEE Committee meetings in September 2025. In the power schematics, the operability of DC systems using electric vehicles as a source of power during power deficit from the grid or during outages is a direct implementation of Pravin’s patent.

    How Pravin has engaged in shaping the industry standards is visible from his participation as a Principal Member with the IEEE Standards Association. Pravin is the listed committee member in the recent NESC Preprint, a standard adopted across the world for power systems design and application. Pravin Sankhwar’s books on electric vehicles and electrification are available in major libraries in the US. Ms Book Thief, the largest book blogger, has interviewed and appraised Pravin’s work with a high rating and commented, “From navigating regulatory frameworks to addressing range anxiety and the need for standardisation across charging networks, the author provides a balanced view of both the opportunities and hurdles in this space.” Additionally, Indian Book Critics comments on use case of Pravin’s work: “The book is particularly significant for the Indian market. With the government’s focus on initiatives like “Make in India” and its ambitious targets for EV adoption, Sankhwar’s insights into rural electrification and entrepreneurial opportunities are invaluable. The detailed plan for launching an electric scooter company demonstrates the author’s commitment to fostering innovation and growth within the Indian EV ecosystem.”

    Pravin’s recommendations for improving the future of the power industry come from notable words: “Electrical safety at the workplace is of prime importance to me, and when designing electrical systems, extreme care is required to eliminate any safety hazards.” For young professionals, I encourage them to keep consistency and read research articles frequently to make informed decisions in both careers and while implementing ideas in the workplace.”

  • Egg Freezing Gains Popularity in India: Dr. S. Vyjayanthi on the Future of Fertility Preservation

    Egg Freezing Gains Popularity in India: Dr. S. Vyjayanthi on the Future of Fertility Preservation

    Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], September 25:  Fertility preservation is no longer a subject confined to medical textbooks and oncology wards—it is now part of mainstream conversations among India’s urban, career-driven women. One procedure leading this change is egg freezing, and guiding this shift with expertise and compassion is Dr S. Vyjayanthi, Director of MotherToBe Fertility Centre and Head of the Fertility Department at KIMS Hospitals, Secunderabad.

    The Changing Face of Fertility Choices

    Traditionally, fertility treatments were sought only when couples encountered challenges conceiving. But today, women in their late 20s and early 30s are taking a proactive step by choosing to freeze their eggs. According to Dr Vyjayanthi, this marks a new era in reproductive health.

    “Egg freezing is not only for women undergoing cancer treatment or medical conditions that threaten fertility,” she explains. “We are seeing a growing number of professionals—lawyers, IT specialists, entrepreneurs—choosing social egg freezing to protect their fertility while pursuing their careers and personal goals.”

    Why Timing Matters

    Dr Vyjayanthi stresses that age remains the single most critical factor in fertility. Women are born with a limited number of eggs, and both the quality and quantity decline over time.

    “Freezing eggs at a younger age—ideally before 35—significantly increases the chances of achieving a successful pregnancy later in life,” she says. “It’s about empowering women to plan motherhood on their terms, without feeling rushed by their biological clock.”

    The Science Behind Egg Freezing

    The procedure itself is a blend of science and precision. It begins with controlled ovarian stimulation, followed by egg retrieval. These eggs are then preserved through vitrification, a rapid freezing method that prevents ice crystal formation and maintains egg quality.

    When the woman is ready for pregnancy, the eggs can be thawed, fertilised through IVF, and transferred as embryos. “The technology is highly advanced and safe,” Dr Vyjayanthi reassures. “We have seen remarkable results for patients who return years later to use their frozen eggs.”

    Emotional Freedom and Empowerment

    Beyond the science, Dr. Vyjayanthi highlights the psychological benefits. For many women, egg freezing brings a sense of control and peace of mind.

    “It gives women breathing space,” she notes. “They can focus on their education, career, or finding the right life partner, without the constant anxiety of running out of time. For patients, this relief itself is life-changing.”

    Rising Awareness in India

    Urban centers like Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and Mumbai are witnessing an uptick in women seeking consultations on egg freezing. Alongside career-oriented women, patients with conditions like premature ovarian insufficiency, endometriosis, or those undergoing cancer therapies are also considering fertility preservation.

    At MotherToBe Fertility Centre, the demand has steadily grown. “Our approach is to provide advanced treatment backed by ethical practices and thorough counselling,” Dr Vyjayanthi emphasises. “Every woman deserves to make an informed choice about her fertility.”

    Looking Ahead: A New Chapter in Reproductive Health

    Experts believe that fertility preservation will play a transformative role in reproductive planning in India over the coming decade. As awareness spreads and societal attitudes shift, egg freezing is likely to become as normalized as other preventive healthcare measures.

    For Dr. Vyjayanthi, the mission is clear: “Fertility preservation is not about delaying motherhood indefinitely. It’s about giving women the right to choose—on their terms, with the best chances possible. That, to me, is the true revolution in fertility care.”

    Humble Beginnings to a Billboard Empire

    Growing up in a cramped home and working from a young age to support his family, he sold newspapers and firecrackers while nurturing a deep love for cinema. With limited means, but limitless dreams, he entered the world of advertising by selling promotional films in theaters. His first breakthrough came when he set up a modest billboard at Malad railway station. From there, his determination, honesty, and hard work propelled him forward—attracting clients from across industries, including his landmark deal with Manikchand for the Filmfare Awards.

    What began as a small venture soon became a flourishing empire. Today, Bright Outdoor Media is synonymous with excellence in outdoor advertising, trusted by over one lakh clients, including top corporates, real estate giants, and the film industry.

    Global Recognition: Making India Proud

    This year, Dr. Lakhani achieved two remarkable milestones that placed India firmly on the global stage. He was invited as a distinguished guest to witness President Donald Trump’s Oath-Taking Ceremony in the USA—a moment of immense pride not only for him but also for the nation. Soon after, he walked the red carpet at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, representing India on one of the world’s most glamorous platforms. These achievements are a testament to how far his journey of perseverance and vision has reached.

    Bright Outdoor: Innovation with Purpose

    Under his leadership, Bright Outdoor Media made history in March 2023 by becoming the first outdoor advertising company listed on the BSE. Inspired by global landmarks such as Times Square in New York and the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, Dr. Lakhani is bringing world-class innovation to Indian skies. From solar-powered billboards to cutting-edge digital LED displays, Bright Outdoor is modernizing the face of advertising while creating jobs and opportunities for thousands.

    Today, Bright manages over 50 of Mumbai’s 100 plus prime digital LED billboards and continues to expand rapidly, setting new benchmarks in sustainability and scale.

    Service Beyond Business

    Dr. Lakhani’s success is rooted in his deep commitment to service. He has established free dialysis centers, supports blood donation drives, provides food for the underprivileged, and distributes books to needy students. This year, instead of hosting his iconic Bright Awards Night, he chose to dedicate resources to the blind, specially-abled, orphanages, and old-age homes.

    Honors and Recognition

    Over the years, Dr. Lakhani has been awarded two honorary doctorates—from Sorbonne University of France for his contribution to business management, and from Royal American University of the USA for his commitment to social service. With over 10,000 awards to his name, his achievements are recognized across industries. His leadership and time management skills are even studied as case studies in MBA institutions—despite the fact that he never pursued an MBA himself.

    Faith, Family, and Humanity

    A devoted Jain, he actively supports spiritual leaders and organizations, while respecting and uplifting all faiths. At the same time, he prioritizes his family, always making time for his wife Jagruti and son Anugrah. Whether it’s traveling together or spending quality weekends, he believes family is the true foundation of success.

    A Life That Inspires

    From selling newspapers to addressing international dignitaries, from setting up a small railway station billboard to walking the Cannes red carpet—Dr. Yogesh Lakhani’s story is a living proof that with resilience, service, and vision, no dream is too big. He is not just an industry leader—he is a role model for perseverance, humility, and purpose-driven success.

  • BloomX Solutions and Rank Up Announce Launch of Next-Generation AEO & GEO Services, With Rank Up Academy Set to Empower SEOs Worldwide

    BloomX Solutions and Rank Up Announce Launch of Next-Generation AEO & GEO Services, With Rank Up Academy Set to Empower SEOs Worldwide

    New Delhi [India], September 25: As artificial intelligence continues to transform how people search, discover, and interact with information, BloomX Solutions, in collaboration with Rank Up, proudly unveils a groundbreaking suite of Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) services. These new offerings are designed to help brands secure visibility and credibility in a search environment increasingly shaped by AI. Alongside this launch, Rank Up Academy is preparing to open its doors, equipping SEO professionals across the globe with the future-ready skills they need to thrive.

    The Changing Face of Search

    Search is no longer about competing for a spot among the “ten blue links.” Instead, it is increasingly defined by AI-driven platforms — from voice assistants and knowledge panels to chat-based answer engines and generative AI summaries. These tools no longer just point users toward information; they directly provide answers, recommendations, and insights.

    For brands, this evolution brings both opportunity and urgency. Traditional SEO strategies optimized only for SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages) are not enough. AI-driven discovery has become the new battleground for visibility, sentiment, and share of voice. Brands that fail to adapt risk becoming invisible to audiences who increasingly rely on AI to make decisions.

    BloomX Solutions and Rank Up recognized this challenge early and have now introduced their AEO & GEO solutions to meet it head-on.

    What the New Services Deliver

    1.⁠ ⁠AEO & GEO Optimization Services

    The newly launched services provide a comprehensive optimization framework designed for AI-first discovery channels. Whether a user is searching through voice assistants, generative AI tools, or knowledge panels, AEO & GEO ensures that the brand’s content is surfaced, cited, and trusted.

    This means more than simply ranking in search results — it’s about becoming the authoritative source that AI models rely on when answering questions.

    2.⁠ ⁠Unprecedented AI Metrics

    Historically, brands lacked visibility into how AI tools handled their information. Traditional analytics platforms could not measure sentiment or visibility in AI-driven summaries. Rank Up changes that by offering cutting-edge dashboards that track:

    • AI Visibility – How often your brand appears in AI-generated answers.
    • Sentiment Analysis – Whether mentions are positive, negative, or neutral.
    • Share of Voice – How your brand stacks up against competitors in the AI-driven search landscape.

    These insights give marketing teams actionable intelligence to improve their positioning and reputation within generative platforms.

    3.⁠ ⁠Rank Up Academy (Coming Soon)

    Alongside the services, Rank Up Academy is set to launch as one of the first global educational platforms dedicated to AEO & GEO.

    The academy will provide structured training, case studies, and hands-on learning for SEO professionals. From mastering structured data for AI to crafting conversational content and monitoring generative performance, the academy ensures that professionals can future-proof their careers.

    Why This Matters for Brands

    For businesses, AEO & GEO is no longer optional. As AI tools replace traditional search functions, brand mentions within zero-click results, summaries, or voice answers have become mission-critical.

    A consumer asking Siri for “the best skincare for dry skin” or ChatGPT for “top finance software for small businesses” often receives a short, AI-curated answer. If your brand isn’t part of that answer, it effectively doesn’t exist in the decision-making moment.

    The implications are clear:

    Visibility becomes trust. If AI cites your brand, users are more likely to believe you’re credible.

    Absence means invisibility. Brands missing from these channels risk losing market share.

    Early adoption offers leverage. Companies already optimizing for AEO & GEO are gaining competitive advantages where rivals are absent.

    Why This Matters for SEO Professionals

    The shift to AI-driven search also represents a skills revolution for SEO practitioners. Strategies that once revolved solely around backlinks and keyword density must now expand into new areas:

    • AI Citations: Crafting content in formats that generative models can easily reference.
    • Conversational Content: Writing for natural, question-and-answer flows.
    • Structured Data: Ensuring machine readability for AI-driven engines.
    • Generative Monitoring: Tracking performance not only on SERPs but also on AI outputs.

    Rank Up Academy’s curriculum is being designed to bridge this skills gap, giving professionals the tools to remain relevant and competitive.

    Voices from the Launch

    “We are standing at a turning point in how search works,” said [Name, Title], BloomX Solutions.

    “Brands no longer get to choose whether to invest in AI-visibility strategies — they must. We’re already seeing client data where early adopters of AEO & GEO appear in generative summaries while competitors are absent. Those early wins are not just visibility gains; they’re reshaping entire market shares.”

    “Rank Up is built to empower both brands and SEO professionals to thrive in the AI search era,” said Rajesh Gouri, CEO of Rank Up.

    “With our platform, brands gain real-time visibility into how AI perceives them and can act on those insights. The upcoming Rank Up Academy takes this further — we’re giving SEO professionals the training they need to keep their skills sharp and their strategies competitive in a landscape that’s evolving daily.”
