Most of the respondents suffering from COVID-19 from 15 days to 3 months (43.6%). In a study, the average HRQOL score among respondents was 66.01 ([+ or -]11.81), with physical well- being scoring highest (19.89[+ or - ]4.41) and functional well-being lowest (14.44 [+ or -]4.19). Age-wise, respondents aged 15-25 scored highest in various health domains. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in Fact-G scores across age groups, with 15-25-year-olds scoring highest, indicating a notable age-related variation in health quality. Conclusions: Findings of the study shows that fifteen to twenty-five years' age of women's HRQOL was higher than other groups. Educated women have better HRQOL score. Physical wellbeing was higher than other domains and functional wellbeing was lower than other domains. Elderly women who had comorbidities had lower HRQOL score.
