Of course, women have a lot more women specific health issues than men have men specific health issues, so it makes sense.
There are certain areas where, as I understand, women are less diagnosed when they should be compared to men (e.g. heart conditions), but in other areas both men and women face a doctor shrugging and moving on rather than arriving at a diagnosis.
I went to the ER because I woke up with extreme period pain at 4am. Thought my IUD and perforated my uterus, it was so painful. I was givej nothing for the pain, not even Robaxin. Meanwhile, my ex right before that woke up weird and his neck was sore, went to urgent care and they gave him Robaxin for 2 weeks. Lol.
I ask for anxiety meds for IUD placement and get nothing. My ex had dentist anxiety and was given Xanax.
I ask for low dose estrogen, denied. My ex asks for hormones incl finasteride (which increases estrogen in men…) and gets it.
They deserve treatment too ofc, but like, it isn’t the same.
