Women’s bodies are different from men’s bodies<\/p>\n<\/div>

Gender medicine<\/h1>\n<\/div>

Drugs are tested on men, guidelines are geared towards men. This can be dangerous for women. Because our gender influences symptoms and the success of treatment. Until now, however, this realization has hardly been taken into account in medicine. For many centuries, almost all medical research has focused on men.<\/p>\n

This is also because the pharmaceutical industry fears that including women in studies will make the work more complicated. Hormone fluctuations due to the female cycle, contraceptives or menopause would have to be taken into account. Comparisons with older studies would be difficult, as these were only tested on men. The costs would be significantly higher.<\/p>\n<\/div>
