September is Women in Medicine Month, an opportunity to recognize the achievements and contributions of women across medicine and healthcare.

Women make up nearly 70% of the global health and care workforce, playing an essential role in delivering care, advancing research, educating future generations, and strengthening health systems worldwide.

Throughout Women in Medicine Month, IUGA celebrates women at every stage of their professional journey and recognizes the importance of creating opportunities for women to lead, contribute, and thrive. This includes supporting greater gender equity in healthcare, recognizing clinical and academic excellence, and championing mentorship for the next generation of healthcare professionals.

As a global community dedicated to advancing urogynecological knowledge and patient care, IUGA is proud to celebrate the women whose expertise, leadership, and contributions continue to strengthen our field and improve pelvic floor health worldwide.

Join us in celebrating Women in Medicine Month and the women shaping the future of healthcare.
