Abstract
The aim of this article is to provide information about the schools of medicine for women, founded by the pioneers in the USA and Great Britain during the second half of the XIXth century, as a strategy to study and practice official medicine, due to the multiple difficulties they found to access to the schools and faculties of different universities. The same difficulties which were found by the first women who tried to access university in other countries and which were not eliminated in Spain, at least formally, until 1910.Downloads
