Effie GUO posted a great note that underscores much of the issues that impact women's health. It also made me think -- we also need to highlight connections between science/discovery, #innovation and #policy and also the progress that is being made, because a lot is happening, inspired by some of these dire stats that Effie has called out. So, if you have any suggestions, please put them in the comments.

I spent 2 weeks reading 50+ women's health papers from 2025. What I found is worse than any conspiracy theory. 10 papers that expose the systematic neglect of women's health: 1. World Economic Forum: Blueprint to Close the Women's Health Gap • Women suffer 25% more poor health days than men • Economic cost: $400B by 2040 • 15-country new tracking system launched Link: https://lnkd.in/e5FUH7wG 2. JAMA+ Women's Health: Women's Health Is Everywhere • Medical research has ignored women for decades • Most clinical trials still exclude women • New platform corrects gender bias Link: https://lnkd.in/e98ebcmQ 3. The Lancet Group: Achieving Gender Justice for Global Health Equity • Gender injustice kills more women than wars • Politics distorts women's health policy • First-ever roadmap to fix health systems by 2030 Link: https://lnkd.in/eJtuptfv 4. PMC Research: Expanding the Women's Health Paradigm Beyond Reproductive Health • Women's health ≠ reproductive health • Life-cycle disease burden ignored • Framework to save millions of lives Link: https://lnkd.in/gbddNjpv 5. National Academy of Medicine: New Directions For Women's Health • 3 critical challenges destroying women's healthcare • Workforce crisis hits women hardest • Innovation blueprint to transform outcomes Link: https://lnkd.in/g5CttGsg 6. JAMA: The Promise and Challenge of AI for Women's Health • AI could finally solve the "female problem" in medicine • Algorithm bias risks worsening inequality • Roadmap for responsible AI that works for women Link: https://lnkd.in/gf9AnGPk 7. World Health Organization: Trends in Maternal Mortality • 260,000 women died from pregnancy complications in 2023 • Over 700 women die daily from preventable causes • 2030 targets completely off track Link: https://lnkd.in/gkH_T3Md 8. World Economic Forum :Policy Recommendations for Women's Health Research • $400B economic opportunity ignored • Policy framework change everything • Public-private partnership model that actually works Link: https://lnkd.in/gf_q4Mj7 9. Journal of Women's Health: Research Priorities • Autoimmune diseases hit women 4x more than men • Mental health treatments designed for male brains • Bone health research decades behind male studies Link: https://lnkd.in/gM7jSbM3 10. The Power and Complexity—of Policy to Drive Advances in Women's Health • Why good intentions fail women's health • Structural biases embedded in every healthcare system • Strategy to bridge the policy-practice gap 50% of population. 4% of research funding. This isn't a women's issue. This is a $400 billion crisis. P.S. What else would you add?

Nine key #health conditions, including #endometriosis and breast #cancer, account for a third of the women’s health gap. The Women's Health Impact Tracking (WHIT) platform is a first-of-its-kind global tool developed by the World Economic Forum, in collaboration with the McKinsey Health Institute, to measure progress toward closing the women’s health gap.

Really energised by this week’s Women’s Health Horizons (WHH) x FutureFemHealth webinar, brilliantly moderated by Ashleigh Niziol ✨ We keep hearing about the $1 trillion women’s health opportunity, but capital isn’t flowing as it should. As Laura Minquini highlighted, women’s health still isn’t seen as a “proven business model”, exits are rare, so traditional VC remains hesitant. If we keep doing the same things, we’ll get the same results. We need creative systems to break the cycle and ensure science-backed solutions don’t die before they ever see the light of day! Grateful to the inspiring women on this panel - Lara Zibners MD MMEd MBA, Sophia Yen, MD, MPH, Laura Minquini and Anna O'Sullivan - for their candid insights, it left me feeling motivated that while the hurdles are real, there are already incredible people building the solutions 💜 Replay link and a great recap from Anna O'Sullivan in comments. #WomensHealth #HealthInnovation #WHH #FutureOfHealth #HealthEquity #FemTech #WomenInHealth #InvestInWomen #SystemicChange

Femtech describes a category. Women’s health describes a life. We need BOTH, but we can’t afford to confuse them. Morgan Rose wrote this piece for Femtech World to name the difference and push the conversation forward. Because not all women’s health is femtech, and that distinction shapes how we build, fund, and care. Here’s the tension: investment still clusters around reproductive milestones because they are easier to monetize and measure. But the bigger market opportunity, and the deeper unmet need, lives in everything we have ignored. Chronic pain. Hormonal shifts. Cardiovascular and autoimmune risk. Mental health threaded through all of it.
