Depends where, but women continued to work as they had always done in these years.

Some worked on the land or in the family business. Others were midwives, market women, labor at workplaces (weavers, tanners, spinsters etc), landladies.

On top of that they took care of the house, medicine and children.

The women's jobs were too be devoted to their families.

They had no input in anything and they were expected to serve their husbands.
