Sex matters

how male-centric medicine endangers women's health and what we can do about it
Alyson J McGregor MD MA FACEP
Book - 2020

Exposes that all medical models -- in research and practice -- are male-centric and shows how the biological, biochemical, psychological, and neurological differences between men and women affect issues such as preventative care, emergency care, drug prescriptions, and pain management. Also looks at how race, class, and gender identity are disproportionately affected by this.
