Description:DON’T MAKE ANOTHER HEALTHCARE DECISION WITHOUT READING THIS BOOK “If men had cramps, they’d have cured this by now...”“I told my doctor about my pain for years, but he told me it was all in my head...”“My doctor removed my IUD without anesthesia because ‘there aren’t any nerve endings in there.’ Boy, was he wrong!”These and countless other comments from women who’ve suffered at the hands of the healthcare industry are frighteningly common… but they don’t have to be. Sidelined: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health discloses how women have been marginalized and hesitate to take control over their own healthcare. But what’s behind this nationwide medical crisis? Too often, women:· Ignore their symptoms to avoid being “difficult.”· Downplay their suffering out of fear of being branded “hysterical.” · Are reluctant to question their doctors’ assessments, even if they don’t seem right.The end result could be inferior care, which can lead to serious consequences.In Sidelined, writer and researcher Susan Salenger explains why women are misdiagnosed more often than men, and why their symptoms often go unrecognized or even disputed. This book teaches readers how to:· Take charge of their health.· Communicate their medical needs with their doctor.· Make informed decisions about their own healthcare.· Leave their appointments with answers instead of just questions.Knowing how to advocate for your own healthcare can mean the difference between healthy outcomes and years of needless agony or even death.This important women’s health book equips readers with the knowledge, language, and skill sets they need to overcome the gender bias that is present in the medical industry and get the best healthcare possible.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
