Feminist health activism focuses on addressing and advocating for women’s health issues through a gender-sensitive lens. It highlights the historical neglect of women's medical needs and promotes equitable access to healthcare. Activists challenge societal norms and injustices that affect women's health, such as reproductive rights, mental health, and healthcare disparities. By raising awareness about these issues and pushing for policy changes, feminist health activism aims to empower women to take control of their health, ensuring that women's voices and experiences are central to health discussions and decisions.
