Never have I been in so much pain in my LIFE SMH
The only male doctor at my ob/gyn was visibly angry when I told him my experience getting the IUD. He said, "The women in this practice don't give anesthetic and it makes me furious with them." Way to be a decent human in a sea of assholes, dude.
This is my experience too, ironically. Lmao. One woman I even chose for her compassionate care awards. I never saw her again. I still generally seek out women doctors for other things.
My guess is that women who have had their pain dismissed for their entire lives fall into the trap of internalizing the dismissal.
I can see why male doctors would be ignorant, but wtf is the excuse of female doctors here?
"I had to suffer through it and I'm fine"
