Abstract:
Women worldwide face barriers to kidney transplantation. A qualitative study of 40 women transplant recipients from 16 countries identified key concerns: health system limitations, gender-related stigma, parenthood struggles, and social vulnerability. The study illuminated key insights not previously recognized by providers, but did not include those unable to access transplantation, potentially missing the most substantial obstacles. Addressing these multilevel barriers to transplant equity requires recognizing systemic sexism and listening to the perspectives of women patients.
