The market’s major segments include fertility management, prenatal care, postpartum support, menopause management, gynecological support.
Digital health solution and service vendors have started to monetize on this market opportunity already since the beginning of the app economy, ten years ago.

In the next five years, digital women’s health solution providers will also concentrate on new revenue streams, such as sales of connected medical devices, digital coaching services, and bundled digital packages to drive further market growth.
In 2019, all digital women’s health solution providers generated $112 million of revenues with their services globally. In the upcoming five years the market will grow at a rate of 22% (CAGR) to reach $297 million in 2024.
