Gynecologic malignancies are a significant health concern, making it essential to explore how these disparities manifest in terms of their incidence among different ethnic groups.

Design: Our research employs a longitudinal, population-based retrospective cohort design. Method: Data on gynecologic cancer diagnoses among the Israeli population from 2010 to 2019 was obtained from a National Registry. Disease incidence rates and age standardization were calculated.

Results: Among Jewish women, the age-standardized ratio (ASR) for gynecologic malignancies decreased from 288 to 251 ( p
