Women are neglected by the medical system in almost every way.
Women are more likely to die from almost every illness and disease than men are because medical science is studied on men, not women, with very few exceptions.
Science knows little about female bodies and the medical system doesn’t know what to do with female bodies because they don’t behave like male bodies so they gaslight women into believing nothing is wrong.
This isn't actually controversial to say, nor is it a 'theory'. Science knows that this is accurate. No one wants to actually fund research on female bodies because the research is deemed 'done' because it's been 'done' on men.
