What is women’s health?

Women face unique challenges and health issues. In addition, health issues that affect both men and women often affect women differently. Women’s health covers a wide range of issues affecting women, not all of which can be covered in one section of this website. This particular topic section provides broad information on women’s health; more detailed information on these topics can be found in the specific topic sections on the NICHD website or on other sites.
