Piskei Teshuvos 181:1 says that most women have the custom to not wash Mayim Achronim. This is because the halachic reason of “Sodomite salt” is according to many Poskim not relevent today, and the issue of unclean hands is also less relevent due to the use of cutlery. Moreover, women are generally not particular to observe those Halachos only rooted in Kabbalah. However,if a women notices that her hands are not clean she is obliged to wash them before reciting Birkas Hamazon.
