What percentage of gynecologist are female?
When should you see a gynecologist?
It used to be that the field of obstetrics and gynecology was dominated by male physicians; however, today that has changed dramatically. According to statistics, in 1970, only seven percent of Gynecologist were female, while today that number has jumped up to fifty-nine percent. Much of the drive towards having more female Gynecologist is down to consumer demand, as more women would rather have a female Gynecologist than a male – as women believe that a female Gynecologist will have a better understanding of their needs and concerns.
