Women's Health
NP Jobs in the United States.

WHNPs provide gynecologic, reproductive, prenatal, and postpartum care, along with menopause management and the primary care needs of women across the lifespan. There are currently 82 women's health positions listed here.

WHNPs certify through the National Certification Corporation (NCC), earning the WHNP-BC credential after completing an accredited women's health graduate program and obtaining state APRN licensure.

The median posted salary across women's health NP listings on NP Hiring that disclose annual pay is $124,938. Nationally, nurse practitioners earn a median annual wage of $132,300 (BLS OEWS, Nurse Practitioners (29-1171), median annual wage, May 2025). Pay varies with experience, setting, geography, and employment type.

OB/GYN group practices, family planning and reproductive health clinics, fertility centers, public health programs, and telehealth platforms all post WHNP roles. Some roles focus on gynecology only, while others include prenatal and postpartum panels, so confirm the scope in each listing.

Practice authority is set state by state, and the tier alone does not settle what applies to you. The AANP State Practice Environment classifies 27 states + DC as Full Practice, where state law lets nurse practitioners evaluate patients, diagnose, order and interpret diagnostic tests, and initiate and manage treatments, including prescribing medications and controlled substances, under the exclusive licensure authority of the state board of nursing. Several of those states first require a transition period of collaborative or supervised practice. Most other states require a collaborative agreement, supervision or delegation involving a physician or another health provider, and several of them offer a route out of it after a set amount of experience. Check the practice-authority details for the state you are browsing on its state jobs page, or in the Full Practice Authority guide, before relying on the tier.
