The United States leads with the highest share of female physicians aged 45-54 at 35.27%, followed by Germany (18.45%) and Italy (9.24%). Growth is noted in several countries, with Japan and Romania showing the highest year-on-year increases in 2023 at 5.46% and 5.63% respectively. Despite some declines, like Bulgaria's -7.81%, overall trends suggest moderate increases in the share of female physicians in this age group.
Future trends to watch include:
- A potential increase in female representation in countries actively promoting gender equality in medicine, particularly in emerging markets.
- Continuous improvement of healthcare policies supporting women's career advancement and work-life balance within medical professions.
- Monitoring countries with negative trends for potential underlying causes and addressing them through targeted workforce strategies.
