Abstract
Sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) are central to overall health and well-being. Advancing women’s gynaecological health is an aspect of SRHR that has been inadequately prioritized. We highlight the costs incurred by women, health systems and societies associated with menstrual health and endometriosis to underscore critical unmet women’s health needs and call for interventions to mitigate society-wide economic repercussions of poor gynaecological health in women.
