  Individual entities are being connected every day with the advancement of
Internet of Things (IoT). IoT contains various application domains and
healthcare is one of them indeed. It is receiving a lot of attention recently
because of its seamless integration with electronic health (eHealth) and
telemedicine. IoT has the capability of collecting patient data incessantly
which surely helps in preventive care. Doctors can diagnose their patients
early to avoid complications and they can suggest further modifications if
needed. As the whole process is automated, risk of errors is reduced.
Administrative paperwork and data entry tasks will be automated due to tracking
and connectivity. As a result, healthcare providers can engage themselves more
in patient care. In traditional healthcare services, an individual used to have
access to minimal insights into his own health. Hence, they were less conscious
about themselves and depended wholly on the healthcare facilities for
unfortunate events. But they can track their vitals, activities and fitness
with the aid of connected devices now. Furthermore, they can suggest their
preferred user interfaces. This paper describes several methods, practices and
prototypes regarding IoT in the field of healthcare for women and children.
