ABSTRACT: Women of childbearing age (WCBA) are a high-risk group for musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders and face significant challenges. A comprehensive analysis is needed to understand the impacts and develop suitable strategies. Detailed data on MSK disorders in WCBA over the past 32 years, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), osteoarthritis (OA), low back pain (LBP), neck pain (NP), gout, and other musculoskeletal disorders (OMSKDs), were collected from the Global Burden of Disease database (GBD2021).
