The cost of gynecological care can be a significant barrier for many women. Expenses can include consultation fees, diagnostic tests, surgical procedures, and medications. Even with health insurance, out-of-pocket costs can be prohibitive for some. High costs can deter women from seeking necessary care, potentially leading to worsened health outcomes. For instance, untreated polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can lead to complications such as infertility and diabetes.
