KUALA LUMPUR: Chronic kidney disease (CKD), often described as a "quiet disease”, progresses silently and is frequently detected only after significant kidney damage has occurred, prompting experts to urge women to prioritise early screening.
Consultant Nephrologist and Kidney Transplantation Physician at Sunway Medical Centre (SMC), Sunway City, Dr Rosnawati Yahya said many patients only discover their condition when kidney function has already declined substantially.
