The literature review reflects the main possible gynecological pathologies and their causes in female flight attendants. These diseases are serious problems for all women; however, aviation professionals are at a higher risk. The article examined various factors that can contribute to the development of not only gynecological diseases but also breast cancer and venous thrombosis in female flight attendants. Risk factors include long-term exposure to ionizing radiation, static stress, jet lag, and chronic stress. The review also analyzed existing studies related to the effect of occupational exposure on the health of flight attendants and suggested possible measures for the prevention and treatment of emerging pathologies, which can serve as a basis for the development of effective programs to preserve the health of female flight attendants.
