  • Title: Barriers to women's health: why is it so hard for women to stay healthy?
    Author: Ogburn T, Voss C, Espey E.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol Clin North Am; 2009 Dec; 36(4):737-52, ix. PubMed ID: 19944298.
    Abstract:
    The recognition that women have different health care needs than men has enabled changes to take place in clinical care, research, and education of women's health. Providing health care coverage to all women must be a high priority. Research must address the differences between men and women and how they respond to disease and treatment. The physician workforce needs to be expanded; physicians should be well trained to provide comprehensive health care to women. Strategies, such as those used in comprehensive centers of women's health and women's health residencies, can improve education and increase the number of women in academia.
