Women health as a multidisciplinary term needs more comprehensive and inclusive considerations in scientific approaches

Health as a multidisciplinary term involves a wide variety of domains including but not limited to bodily, mental, spiritual, social, relational, etc. In fact, the notion of health could construe regarding different existential dimensions of human life. Vulnerability of women in different circumstances of social life and their natural differences from men would provide a higher sensitivity and importance when regarding their health. As a fact, a combination of internal and external factors are affecting health in general, determine the degree to which a woman might feel healthy. Although external pollutions, aggressive behaviors, social and familial deprivations, etc. are working as external challenges of health for women, there are some internal elements that could counter health and a feeling of health in women; to name but a few are excessive anxiety, depression, lack self determination or self-respect, dissatisfaction of the situation, etc. Regardless of the external elements that could be more easily determined and assessed but determination and assessment of internal elements could be completely difficult and calls for more complex scientific procedures. In general, interaction of external and internal health related entities and their co-influences should be considered together when approaching a complete evaluation of women health in a scientific language. In sum, women health could not be approached as a single meaning concept. Internal elements of the health and their co-interactions are as much important as the external factors. Health is resultant of a variety of personal and environmental conceptions that reciprocally affect each other. Additionally, women by themselves are different in bearing unhealthy conditions and could have different feelings of health in a single situation. Therefore, researches of the field could be shifted into more comprehensive and inclusive ones.
