Abstract

In the last few decades, the number of women joining medicine has shown a marked increase all over the world. In India, similar trends are observed though exact data on a nationwide basis is not available, but most women doctors tend to join the disciplines that are less demanding. Concerns about the paucity of research in this area are high-lighted in this note.
