Why We Don't Know Enough About Women's H...

About this episode

In this episode, we close out our women’s health series with some final thoughts. Discussing periods, pregnancy, and menopause on the podcast was something we’ve been meaning to do for a long time, but the reality is, there’s a lot of science left to do on these topics. Why has women’s health been ignored for so long? Why have so many drugs not been tested on women specifically, even though they are FDA approved? We talk about all of it, plus what we learned from this series, and more.
