 This study examined the current literature on the challenges faced by female medical students and doctors in Pakistan. It looked at the PubMed, Education Resources Information Center, ERIC, and Google Scholar databases to identify relevant sources from 2009 to 2020. In addition to this, the authors also considered the Pakistani context when looking at the interventions implemented in other countries to address generated issues. The main findings included unequal representation of female doctors in leadership roles and in certain specialties, work-life balance issues, cultural norms, and lack of professional development opportunities.
