Female Prisoners

Female prisoners suffer everyday, their main issue today is health issues. This research article is about many health issues that females go through when they are incarcerated. When I talk about health, I talk about sexual, mental, physical, substance abuse, pregnancy and prison birth, and other health services. Health care issues of women in jails and prisons in the United States generally have been ignored throughout history. These health issues do not seek attention, if they did, it would take days or weeks and it would not be worth the time of wait.
