In our research, we have categorized the gynecology devices market based on various types. The global gynecology devices market is divided into three main segments: surgical devices, instruments, and diagnostic imaging systems. Within the surgical devices category, we further classify them into gynecological endoscopy devices, endometrial ablation devices, female sterilization and contraceptives, and fluid management systems.
The gynecological endoscopy devices segment includes colposcopes, hysteroscopes, resectoscopes, and other related tools. Endometrial ablation devices are categorized into radiofrequency endometrial ablation devices, hydrothermal endometrial ablation devices, and additional types. The female sterilization and contraceptives segment is further divided into intrauterine devices and other contraceptive methods. The instruments segment encompasses vaginal speculums, tenaculums, curettes, and various other instruments. Lastly, the diagnostic imaging systems segment includes mammography, ultrasound, and other imaging technologies.
By the end of 2025, the gynecology devices market is projected to reach approximately US$ 28,417.9 million, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.6% from 2018 to 2025, up from US$ 8,618.5 million in 2017. This growth can be attributed to an increase in the number of gynecological procedures performed in hospitals to address women's health issues, as well as the adoption of technologically advanced devices and instruments. Additional factors contributing to market expansion include the introduction of new products, strategic partnerships, collaborations, and acquisitions by leading market players. For example, in April 2018, CooperSurgical acquired the assets of The LifeGlobal Group and its affiliates, a prominent provider of in-vitro fertilization devices. However, the intense competition among established players poses a challenge for new entrants, potentially hindering market growth.
North America is expected to maintain a significant share of the global gynecology devices market, driven by advancements in healthcare technology, evolving lifestyles among women, and an increasing prevalence of reproductive health disorders. In the Asia Pacific region, the demand for gynecology devices is anticipated to grow substantially during the forecast period, fueled by a rising incidence of endometriosis and reproductive disorders, an increase in the average age of childbearing among women, and heightened awareness regarding breast and cervical cancer.
The gynecology devices market features a mix of well-established companies and emerging players, including CooperSurgical, Inc., Hologic Inc., Boston Scientific Corporation, Ethicon US, LLC, Medtronic, KARL STORZ SE & Co. KG, Stryker, Olympus Corporation, Richard Wolf GmbH, General Electric Company, and others.
