The trend toward female gender-dominance in women's health care carries enormous implications for the specialty, patients, and the practice of medicine as a whole. It is unclear what "gates," if any, should be created/maintained to control gender dominance, but it is certain that a continued shift in specialty constituency will change the way health care is provided to women. It is doubtful that even the most thorough prognosticators will be able to identify these changes prospectively, but several concerns arise regarding the security of the specialty when current literature is reviewed. |
