    Gender Disparity in Authorship in High-Impact Obstetrics and Gynecology Journals over Twenty Years
    (Routledge, 2025) Yüksel Ozgor, Bahar; Ergül, Aslıhan; Berkay, Ezgi Gizem
    In the present study, we evaluate the proportion of women authorship in the field of obstetrics and gynecology research by assessing five prominent journals spanning 2001–2021, analyzing article types, study types, sub-specificities, and regions. Our outcomes demonstrate a significant increase in women’s authorship over time, highlighting progress in promoting gender equality. However, the rate of first and most senior women authors remains relatively unchanged. Notably, we determine a rise in the proportion of first authors who are women in experimental studies but not in studies that require surgical practice. This study sheds light on the challenges faced by women in scientific pursuits. Our study suggests that systemic barriers, prejudices, and inequalities likely continue to hinder gender equality in our discipline. By emphasising the continuance of this problem, we intend to encourage collective awareness and action. Together, we can transcend gender disparities and create a space where every voice, regardless of gender, can flourish. Through our study, we hope to inspire future generations and ignite change within the field of obstetrics and gynecology. By valuing and amplifying diverse perspectives, we can create a future where gender equality is the norm, enabling scientific discovery to reach new heights. © 2025 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
