💨 Abstract

The author discusses her experiences with medical misogyny, detailing a visit to A&E for a severe rash where she felt dismissed but was listened to after her boyfriend intervened. She highlights her long history of mental and physical health issues, often attributed to her mental health, leading to delayed treatments and a sense of dismissal. The author notes that the UK has a significant gender health gap, with many women reporting their health concerns are not taken seriously.
