In many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, women continue to face enormous difficulties in accessing healthcare. Economic, educational, social, and geographic inequalities, as well as sociocultural contexts (roles and power relations in decision-making and access to resources such as food, land, and housing…) often mean that women have very little autonomy (not only financial) to access healthcare on their own, which also limits and delays their access to medical check-ups, diagnostic tests, and treatments, further exacerbating their vulnerability to preventable or treatable diseases.
