A] powerful account of the sexism cooked into Medical care ...
A rich combination of journalism and personal narrative, Pain and Prejudice reveals a dangerously flawed system, and offers solutions for a safer, more equitable future.
She also includes an up-to-the-minute epilogue on the ways that Covid-19 are impacting women in different and sometimes more long-lasting ways than men.
Meanwhile, women are reporting feeling ignored and dismissed at their doctor\'s offices on a regular basis.
Jackson interweaves these and more stunning revelations in the book with her own story of suffering from endometriosis, a condition that affects up to 20% of American women but is poorly understood and frequently misdiagnosed.
Doctors and researchers who do specialize in women\'s healthcare are penalized financially, as procedures performed on men pay higher.

Almost all Medical research today is performed on men or male mice, making most treatments tailored to male bodies only.
