Why Women Are Often Dismissed in Healthcare—and How to Advocate for Yourself

Send us a text

Why are women so often dismissed, misdiagnosed, or ignored when it comes to their health? In this episode of The Hint Hive: Amplifying Women’s Voices, we dig deep into the systemic biases that plague women’s healthcare—from doctors labeling women’s pain as “psychosomatic,” to the dangerous racial disparities in maternal care, to the historical exclusion of women from medical research that still shapes treatment today.

But this isn’t just a rant—it’s a roadmap. You’ll learn how to recognize medical gaslighting, ask the right questions, document your symptoms, and advocate fiercely for yourself in doctor’s offices that may try to silence you. We’ll talk strategy, share real-life stories, and most importantly, remind you that your voice and your body deserve to be heard.

Because women’s health is not an afterthought—it’s a revolution.
