Gender-related factors and the social and economic conditions that impact the lives and health of women injection drug users (IDUs) in Chicago are described. Although study participants are highly imaginative and resourceful in terms of income-generating self-sufficiency, they engage in a variety of behaviors that put them at risk of contracting infectious diseases such as HIV and hepatitis B and C viruses. We point out that labor inequalities experienced by women IDUs, together with the gender ideologies that support those inequalities, provide reduced opportunities to practice harm reduction and other health care options
