Understand Gender Differences in Medicine
Medical practice has historically adopted a 'bikini medicine' approach, focusing primarily on women's reproductive organs while neglecting to account for the significant physiological and neurological differences between genders. This oversight leads to a one-size-fits-all approach to diagnosing and treating medical conditions, ignoring how women metabolize medications and process information differently than men. Neuroscience has predominantly focused on male subjects, which perpetuates the misconception that male and female brains are identical. As a result, women face a higher risk for various brain-related health issues, including depression, autoimmune disorders like multiple sclerosis, headaches, and strokes. There is an urgent need to address these disparities in medical research and practice to ensure appropriate and effective healthcare for women.
