#womenshealthcare — Public Fediverse posts

This is an issue particularly close to my heart - women's basic physiology is far from understood, chronically underfunded and understudied. This needs to change to improve health outcomes.

Here @PLOSBiology calls for more funding for basic research in this area & more exposure of the results https://plos.io/4ckiAOu

There's a pressing need, in view of constant headlines such as the recent publication by the Spanish Nutrition Agency of recommendations for women during menopause based entirely on data obtained in males.

Women's Healthcare is Not Equal to Men's

Read about reasons why, like this one
Delayed surgeries..
"..female surgeons ..were found to be more likely than their male colleagues to have surgeries cancelled or postponed when emergency cases arose. Since Canada’s gynecology workforce is increasingly female, this has a knock-on effect for female patients, too, whose surgeries are more prone to overscheduling and rescheduling."

We always knew this was coming.
Next, bans for this kind of medication.
This is no surprise from the people that force children to carry and birth their rapists babies.

#PuertoRico governor signs law to recognize #fetus as human being as critics warn of consequences

By DÁNICA COTO, February 12, 2026

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) — "Puerto Rico’s governor on Thursday signed a bill that amends a law to recognize a fetus as a human being, a move doctors and legal experts warn will have deep ramifications for the U.S. Caribbean territory.

"The amendment was approved without #PublicHearings and amid concerns from opponents who warned it would unleash confusion and affect how doctors and pregnant or potentially #PregnantWomen are treated.

"The new law will lead to 'defensive health care,' warned Dr. Carlos Díaz Vélez, president of Puerto Rico’s College of Medical Surgeons."

Preserving and expanding access to Medicaid—and improving women’s access to health care—is a matter of life or death.

The Age & The Sydney Morning Herald launched an investigative series in Dec into medical misogyny to explore the effects of systemic gender bias in the healthcare system.
More than 1800 women shared their experiences. Now, we’re calling on the Federal Government to boost Medicare funding for GP appointments that last more than 20 minutes to improve care for women & others with complex health conditions.
