Despite advancements, women often feel unheard and marginalised in medical settings. Their concerns are frequently dismissed or misdiagnosed.
The repeated experience of not being taken seriously, or having symptoms brushed off as 'just emotional,' can lead to anxiety, distrust, and avoidance of medical care.
In desperation, many women turn to the internet, sifting through endless pages, trying to self-diagnose. But without guidance, this can lead to misinformation and heightened fears.
For too long, women's health issues like endometriosis, PCOS, and postpartum depression have been stigmatised, making women suffer in silence.
The lack of extensive women-specific health data means that many treatments and protocols are not tailored for women, leading to sub-optimal care.
