Women’s health is a strategic priority in Saudi Arabia’s national health system, as women play a pivotal role in shaping healthy families and communities. As mothers, daughters, wives, and professionals, women’s well-being directly influences the broader social and economic fabric. Accordingly, the Ministry of Health is committed to providing comprehensive, integrated healthcare for women throughout all stages of life—from childhood and adolescence, through pregnancy and childbirth, to post-menopause.
National initiatives for women’s health aim to raise awareness, empower women to make informed health decisions, and ensure access to preventive, curative, and rehabilitative services. These efforts include early detection programs for chronic diseases such as breast and cervical cancer, as well as education on reproductive health, family planning, proper nutrition, mental well-being, and physical activity.
The Ministry also prioritizes providing safe and supportive environments for women in healthcare settings and continuously develops specialized programs to meet their diverse needs—while respecting cultural and social values. These efforts align with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030, particularly in enhancing quality of life and improving health outcomes for Saudi women and female residents.
Women’s health is not merely a personal issue—it is a national development asset and a direct investment in the health of future generations. Through education, awareness, and high-quality care, the Ministry of Health strives to empower women to lead healthy, productive, and secure lives.
