This powerful editorial emphasizes the urgent need to reframe women’s health beyond reproduction, focusing instead on the interplay of hormones, sex, gender, and socio-cultural influences in endocrine and metabolic disorders. It calls for a gender-transformative approach in diagnosis, research, and care for conditions like diabetes, hypothyroidism, PCOS, obesity, GDM, and osteoporosis.

A must-read for clinicians, researchers, and policymakers committed to equitable healthcare.
