Abstract
Increasing feminization of medical professions is well-acknowledged. However, this does not always
equate to equitable representation of women within medicine, regarding their socio-demographic indicators, regions,
sectors and felds of practice. Thus, this paper quantifes the gap in supply of female medical doctors in relation to
demand, towards reaching diferent gender equity scenarios.
