Melinda French Gates has pledged $215 million to improve women's health worldwide, focusing on contraceptive access, maternal care, and menopause initiatives. Her donations for women's health have exceeded $600 million in the past two years.

The claims regarding Melinda French Gates' philanthropic efforts in women's health are largely supported by reliable sources. Her donations of $215 million to improve women's health, $40 million to Co-Impact for mental health support in Africa, and $10 million to the Menopause Society are confirmed by multiple credible sources. However, the claim that her donations have exceeded $600 million in the past two years lacks direct evidence, resulting in a lower score for that claim. The statistical claim about women receiving only 2% of private healthcare funds is well-supported by authoritative sources.
