Female athletes represent a unique population of competitors who face distinct stressors when compared with male athletes. These include sport inequities, violence, abuse, body image concerns, disordered eating, relative energy deficiency, family planning challenges, hormonal challenges, and mental distress. When combined with sports injuries, these stressors can negatively impact the mental health of female athletes as well as their injury recovery and return to sports. It is essential for orthopaedic surgeons to be familiar with the unique aspects inherent to being a female athlete, along with the psychological aspects of sports injuries. By integrating questions about female athletes' psychological well-being into their routine practice and collaborating with a multidisciplinary team, orthopaedic surgeons can better address these unique stressors, support female athletes in achieving optimal outcomes, and enhance return to sport rates.

女性运动员是一类独特的竞争者群体，与男性运动员相比，她们面临着不同的压力源。这些压力源包括体育领域的不平等、暴力、虐待、身体形象问题、饮食失调、相对能量缺乏、计划生育挑战、激素问题以及精神困扰。当这些压力源与运动损伤相结合时，会对女性运动员的心理健康以及她们的损伤恢复和重返运动产生负面影响。骨科医生必须熟悉作为女性运动员所固有的独特方面，以及运动损伤的心理方面。通过将有关女性运动员心理健康的问题纳入日常临床实践，并与多学科团队合作，骨科医生可以更好地应对这些独特的压力源，支持女性运动员取得最佳治疗效果，并提高重返运动的比例。
