About the Journal
The aim of this journal is to offer a platform for the dissemination of scientific and academic papers that address an interdisciplinary vision of women's health, both from the health and social sciences with a feminist and gender perspective. Articles are also welcome to submit when dealing with an approach of ethical and communicative relationship between health and society, both from a current and historical perspective.
We want to have wide dissemination among the professional public, academics and society in general.
Current Issue
Vol. 9 No. 1 (2024): Silenced Grief: Infertility and Perinatal Loss
This issue addresses a current socially silenced issue: the grief that accompanies perinatal loss. The social imaginary thinks of pregnancy, childbirth and puerperium in positive terms, however, pregnancies are often unsuccessful or miscarried and do not go to term, may terminate spontaneously during the first months or the foetus may die late in gestation or even during or immediately after birth, leaving women and couples in a situation of grief that is often not acknowledged by society. Women may also decide to have an abortion for a variety of reasons, almost always a difficult and painful decision. In this issue, coordinated by Dr. Josefina Goberna, contributions are presented as a result of the research project PID2022-140179OB-I00, together with contributions from national and international authors from Spain and Latin America (Chile, Colombia and Uruguay) who complement us with valuable contributions on the subject.
