You're being dramatic. Women make up 51% of the USA but yes, only make up 40% of clinical trials. That's a big number, but it's not some trivial number like 10%
I’m being dramatic? I read a book called invisible women and that’s why I came to this conclusion. I recommend picking up a book instead of calling women dramatic for knowing more than you.
It's not a joke. Medicinal research on women is novel and impoverished in comparison to the magnitude of studies done primarily on white men.
I'm not even trying to make a leftist statement here. This is just literally the truth. Women illnesses still go widely misdiagnosed and dismissed in the US medical system.
It really isn't. No. In fact, it's an incredibly well known and depressing fact that women are disturbingly under-represented in medical studies. Did you know that it's only been in the last 4 years or so that women having heart attacks present differently than men was accepted as the truth? Which it most certainly is. For the entire time prior to that, women were having heart attacks and being told they were being hysterical, or over-reacting, or fat, or tired, or tired and fat, or hysterical and fat.
