In Greek the word Health is named Hygeia, pronounced Hi-je'-a. It is derived from the root word hugies or hygies , meaning healthy, which is also the root word for hygiene. The traditional male-dominated medical profession prefers to use the god of Medicine, Asclepius, (or the Roman name Aesculapius) which is much harder to spell and pronounce, and rarely associated with women. To highlight women's health, we couldn't find a better name encompassing all the ideals of mythology, with the focus on women, than Hygeia.
