I have my own story to add: I went to the nearest gyno to me in pain, sweating. He asked me if I had a husband before asking my symptoms. He told me I was overreacting and gave me painkillers. 2 days later, in ER, I discovered my ovaries were abscessed, I nearly died of sepsis.
I was hospitalized for two weeks which I don& #39;t remember well because I was in a high fever throughout. I had male doctors who visited me regularly because my case was unusual; I wasn& #39;t responding to antibiotics. They wanted to remove both my ovaries.
Luckily, a female doctor came to see me. The problem was my IUD which caused a ladder for bacteria to my ovaries. She told me she would wait if it was what I wanted, if I wanted to keep my ovaries and try to heal.
Not one male doctor tried to alleviate my pain or help me recover.
Not one male doctor tried to alleviate my pain or help me recover.
Because a woman came to my aid and challenged the male doctors who wanted to remove my ovaries - male doctors who said I was making up my pain to begin with - because of her, I healed and still have my body intact.
A male doctor denied my pain, gave me weak painkillers, asked where my husband was, two days later I& #39;m in ER at risk of dying from septic shock, and the first thing male doctors want to do is take away both of my ovaries, and the female doctor intervened on my behalf.
Honestly why are men #gynecologists? They don& #39;t understand female pains. Men already ignore women& #39;s suffering to begin with. Why are our oppressors allowed into every aspect of our private and personal lives? Can& #39;t women have some things for ourselves?
So women are expected to endure rape, forced pregnancy, abuse and malpractice in order for men to have a right to profit as a gynecologist? Knowing that the entire field is founded on such abuses and that male gynos pose a risk to women? What about our right to health and safety?
Scores of people born through artificial insemination have learned from DNA tests that their biological fathers were the doctors who performed the procedure.
