Abstract
Our article focuses on the specific orthopaedic considerations that arise during 3 important phases in a female athlete's life: pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause. These life events bring about hormonal, physiological, and biomechanical changes that can significantly impact musculoskeletal health. Understanding and managing these considerations are crucial for healthcare providers, as they play a pivotal role in promoting optimal outcomes for women. This article explores the etiology, clinical presentation, and management strategies for the most common orthopaedic-related conditions, emphasizing the importance of a multifaceted approach. By providing a comprehensive overview of orthopaedic considerations during pregnancy, the postpartum period, and menopause, this article equips healthcare providers with the knowledge necessary to address the unique orthopaedic-related challenges faced by women at these stages of life.
