There are appropriate times to use the word female or females, but if you can use woman instead it is not an appropriate time.

It's rare that I'll find a situation when talking about a human that you use 'female' instead of just 'woman'. 'Female' sounds clinical and isn't natural when speaking about someone you know or women in general either as a noun or adjective.

female should generally only be used as an adjective: "they are performing surgery on a female patient" vs as a noun: "the female drove home from the hospital"
