Global Women’s Healthcare Market Forecast and Trends

Growth Drivers

The Rise in women-specific health disorders driving the growth of the global women’s healthcare market

According to the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF), the global incidence of osteoporosis among females is expected to reach 680 million in 2050. The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada (SOGC) stated that up to 80% of women suffer from at least one symptom of menopause, such as mood swings, interrupted sleep, and irritability. The 2018 GLOBOCAN report by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) stated that female breast cancer diagnoses were prevalent in 2.1 million females in 2018, responsible for approximately 11.6% of the total global cancer burden. Thus, due to the rapid rise in the number of women-specific health disorders, the global women’s healthcare market is growing significantly in order to treat those disorders.

Changing lifestyle and lifestyle-associated disorders fueling the growth of the global women’s healthcare market

A fast-paced and hectic lifestyle has resulted in a variety of hazardous lifestyle choices, such as poor eating habits, sedentary lifestyle, and inconsistent sleeping patterns, among others. One of the most notable lifestyle disorders in women is PCOS. Additionally, an unhealthy diet has led to a major deficiency of iron in most women leading to anemia. Other lifestyle disorders include obesity, infertility, diabetes, general anxiety disorder, and others. According to an estimate, 68% of women suffer from lifestyle disorders, and 53% skip meals and opt for junk food due to work pressure deadlines. Additionally, 80% of urban Indian working women within the age range of 25-45 are overweight due to stress and a sedentary lifestyle. Thus, the prevalence of such a wide variety of disorders owing to lifestyle change has led to the growth of the demand for various drugs thereby augmenting the global women’s healthcare market.

Restraints

Lack of awareness regarding women’s healthcare and improper facilities

The biggest and most visible impediment to the global women's healthcare industry is a lack of awareness regarding women's healthcare, which has resulted in the majority of ailments going untreated. According to the WHO, 222 million women do not have access to contraceptive services in order to maintain reproductive health. Also, most developing nations lack adequate childbirth facilities, resulting in 300,000 women dying from complications during childbirth in 2013. Every year, about 13 million young females, mostly under the age of 20, give birth or suffer from pregnancy complications, which could also lead to unsafe abortion. Additionally, 4.7 million women in low- and middle-income countries die from non-communicable diseases before reaching the age of 70. Thus, a majority of women suffer from such diseases throughout their lives without getting proper treatment. Thus, owing to lack of awareness, due to various reasons, most disorders remain untreated, which is a massive restraint to the global women’s healthcare market.

Impact of COVID-19 on Global Women’s Healthcare Market

Previous experiences with the Ebola and Zika epidemics have shown that in such a crisis, existing gender disparities in healthcare are exacerbated. The Covid-19 pandemic has had a greater impact in numerous areas, both at work and at home, due to increased workload as a result of lockdown and quarantine restrictions. Women are also at a higher risk of anxiety, sadness, and post-traumatic stress disorder. These significant concerns have sparked a discussion on the importance of focusing on women's healthcare during the pandemic phase. It has created new potential for the growth of the women's healthcare sector.

During the pandemic, less than 20% of women in South Africa and Mozambique used family planning and other reproductive health services. COVID-19 has made it difficult for 60% of women in Azerbaijan and Turkey to get gynecological and obstetric care. The global crisis of decline in women's healthcare in the midst of the pandemic has prompted numerous governments to enter new markets and develop innovative ways to improve services to the female population. thereby creating market potential and demand for the women's healthcare sector.
