Women’s health is a complex landscape where mortality rates are lower compared to men, but the burden of disability and unhealthy years is significantly higher. The gender gap in disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) is striking, particularly for conditions such as low back pain, depressive disorders, and headache disorders, which disproportionately affect women globally.
