My job focuses almost entirely on reducing harmful practices in the OBGYN field which is a widespread problem in all countries. Many people can't seem to believe that a doctor would act other than in the best interest of the patient but the reality is OBGYNs have numerous conflicts of interest and often do appalling things under the guise of practicing medicine. I am glad awareness is spreading
They've done a bunch of studies proving that men who come to the ER are more likely to be taken seriously, are treated better and faster then women who have the same symptoms. It's messed up.None

Found out later I had had a miscarriage.

It's very true though, just recently there was a study in the UK which showed that a larger proportion of women are dying from preventable heart attacks compared to men because doctors either don't recognise the symptoms in women before it happens and putting down to heartburn or "women's troubles"... or because they don't give them proper after care. Male bodies are basically the default standard.
