The Gender Medicine and Female Sexuality Journal

Gender-specific medicine is the study of how diseases differ between men and women in terms of prevention, clinical signs, therapeutic approaches, prognoses, psychological and social impact.

Why gender medicine is so vital

Medical textbooks show mostly male bodies and describe male symptoms. Female pain is often dismissed, which delays diagnoses. Women are still generally being treated as small men.

Sex differences found in every tissue and organ system

Researchers have found sex differences in every tissue and organ system in the human body, as well as in the ‘prevalence, course and severity’ of the majority of common human diseases.

Drug discovery

When women are included in trials, they tend to be tested in the early follicular phase of their menstrual cycle, when hormone levels are at their lowest. The idea is to minimise the possible impacts oestradiol and progesterone may have on the study outcomes. Sadly, real life is not a study and those hormones will be having an impact on outcomes.

Medical devices are tailored for male bodies

Women made up only 18% of participants in trials for endovascular occlusion devices and 32% of participants in studies on coronary stents, while women represented 90% and 92% of participants in facial wrinkle correction trials and dental device trials, respectively.
