Hey ladies! I recently came across this book called "Unwell women - a journey through medicine and myth in a man-made world" by Elinor Cleghorn. It explains why women are often misdiagnosed, their symptoms disbelieved or discriminated again. I truly hope it helps advance gender medicine in the future!!!

    Why do we need "gender medicine"? Are women and men not treated equally in medicine?
