And that’s basically it!
It's not, AND these are "guidelines", which will amount to nothing.
Hell it doesn't even need to be about lady bits for doctors to be dismissive. My wife has been through 3 GP's trying to get some hip pain looked at. Finally found one that would at least do imaging, but they just kinda shrugged it off while she can't even go foot over foot up/down steps.
She finally said screw it and went right to a PT. They had it 50% better two sessions later.
The real kicker? The GP's who both blew her off were women.
