There are a variety of “determinants” that surround individuals, families, and nations to determine a person’s active aging. These determinants affect well-being directly or indirectly.

The determinants of active aging are interconnected in many ways and the relationship between them is important. For example, poor women (economic determinant) are more likely to be exposed to inadequate housing (physical determinant), societal violence (social determinant), and not eat nutritious foods (behavioral determinant). Therefore, increasing the risks for women’s health and thus, leading to boost the market growth.

The risk of osteoporosis increases in women during the post-menopause period and causes 2 million fractures for USD 19 billion annually, and costs will rise as the population ages.

Moreover, about one in five women over age 65 are affected by some type of cancer. Cancer is the second-leading cause of death for senior women. Most of the newly diagnosed breast cancer cases are in women over the age of 60, while the incidence of ovarian cancer peaks when women are in their 70s. Furthermore, Stroke is the third leading cause of death for American women. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention evaluate one in five American women suffer from stroke and more than half of women who have a stroke die from the event.

Obesity is a major concern affecting nearly 41 percent of women between the ages of 65 and 74, putting them at risk for several diseases. Thus, contributing to the growth of the women’s healthcare market.

Growing Demand for Contraceptives to Prevent Unintended Pregnancies Contributing to Market Growth

According to WHO, in 2016, in developing countries such as Asia, Africa, South America, there were around 21 million pregnancies among adolescent girls aged 15–19 years. An estimated 23 million adolescent girls have an unmet need for modern contraception and are at risk of unintended pregnancy. Considerable gaps persist in the use of modern methods among couples who want to prevent pregnancy.

In 2015–2017, 64.9% of the 72.2 million women aged 15–49 in the United States were using contraception to avoid unintended pregnancies. Growth in contraceptive demand until 2030 is expected mainly in the regions of sub-Saharan Africa and Oceania. Between 2015 and 2030, contraceptive use is projected to grow particularly in regions where less than half of married or in-union women of reproductive age currently use contraception. Thus, boosting the market growth.
