About the Journal
Overview
In our rapidly changing and often stressful world, the need to better understand women's health is more pressing than ever. The nuances of women's physical, emotional, and psychological responses challenge the boundaries between typical health experiences and those requiring medical or psychological intervention. As health behaviors and needs evolve in response to shifting societal, environmental, and biological factors, they reflect a complex interplay of influences unique to women across different life stages.
Women's health, a vital focus within medicine, psychology, and public health, plays a key role in exploring and addressing these multifaceted issues. This broad field examines areas such as reproductive health, hormonal fluctuations, mental well-being, pregnancy, menopause, anxiety, stress, cognition, perception, and the neurological and physiological responses that influence women's health outcomes.
These topics are studied within various disciplines and schools of thought, including gynecology, obstetrics, psychiatry, endocrinology, behavioral sciences, humanistic psychology, and public health. A deeper understanding in these areas contributes to more precise healthcare interventions and improved quality of life for women.
The Journal of Women's Health offers an open-access platform aimed at students, clinicians, academics, and researchers engaged in or interested in women's health. It welcomes scholarly contributions across a wide spectrum of research areas including reproductive medicine, mental health, hormonal studies, cardiovascular health in women, osteoporosis, gynecologic oncology, maternal and fetal health, behavioral studies, social determinants of women's health, stress management, trauma, and related conditions.
Researchers are encouraged to contribute original and impactful work to journals like this one, which support the dissemination of novel findings across all areas of women's health science. Peer-reviewed publications in this field serve as essential resources for both academic and clinical communities.
Timely publication and open dialogue enhance understanding and global knowledge sharing. Among respected journals, the Journal of Women's Health serves as a comprehensive digital resource that shares the latest research in women's health and medicine. Its efficient, unbiased review process ensures rapid publication and broad access to evidence-based findings that benefit healthcare professionals and researchers.
The journal uses an Online Submission System to streamline the manuscript review and tracking process, similar to systems used by leading open-access journals. Manuscripts are reviewed by editorial board members or external experts, and acceptance requires approval from at least two reviewers and the editor.
