in Books from IntechOpen

Abstract: Women's Health Problems - A Global Perspective demonstrates the outcome of a considerable evolutionary search for the improved human condition. This edited volume thoroughly examines fundamental aspects of women`s health focusing on environmental, social, and age factors. Esteemed contributors from various disciplines present critical analyses and evidence-based insights on topics such as reproductive and sexual health, menstruation, women's and maternal diseases, healthcare access, gender-based violence, and systemic inequalities. The holistic approach postulates the involvement of the reproductive system in the total scenario of general health. Several reproductive disorders or gestational pathologies were known as a part of the programming of short- and long-term consequences. This work aims to inform and inspire readers, offering a vital resource for anyone committed to understanding and improving women's health on a global scale. The chapters present knowledge on the programs providing general and reproductive health and contributing to longevity. Explore the challenges, triumphs, and the ongoing journey toward equitable health for women everywhere.
