11. Global Analysis of Women in Medicine

The global analysis of women in medicine examines the historical and current roles of women in the medical field across different cultures and countries. Historically, women faced significant barriers, such as limited access to education and professional opportunities. Over time, progress has been made, with more women entering medical schools and leadership roles. However, disparities still exist regarding representation, pay, and recognition. By studying these trends globally, we can identify challenges and successes, ultimately aiming to create a more equitable healthcare system that values the contributions of women in medicine.
