On my podcast this week, my guest @demisantanabrown and I talked about the medical misogyny that's still far too common, especially in endometriosis care. A young patient of mine was recently told by her gynaecologist that her only treatment options were more exercise, a hysterectomy or getting pregnant, and Demi said it sounded painfully familiar from her own experience.
Comments like these are totally unacceptable. Women's symptoms are so often dismissed as being 'in their head,' or brushed off with incorrect advice, with little or no discussions about hormone treatments, and this really needs to change. Too many women are needlessly suffering.
