The Medical Gender Gap: A Prehistoric Problem in Modern Hospitals
Picture a woman arriving at an emergency room with chest pain, nausea, and fatigue. She's sent home with anxiety medication. Hours later, she returns in cardiac arrest. Her symptoms were textbook-for a female heart attack. But medicine was written from a male template. This isn't an isolated incident. From drug dosages to surgical equipment, modern healthcare operates on a dangerous assumption: that women's bodies are simply smaller versions of men's. The reality? Our biology tells a radically different story, one that begins not in medical schools but in the primordial forests 200 million years ago. Every system in a woman's body-from her milk-producing breasts to her pain-sensing neurons-evolved under distinct pressures that shaped human survival itself. Understanding this evolutionary journey isn't just academic curiosity. It's a matter of life and death, revealing why women metabolize medications differently, why their immune systems behave uniquely, and why their pain is so often dismissed. Our story begins with a tiny, mouse-like creature nursing her young in a world ruled by dinosaurs.
