“If a man had this problem, it would surely be fixed”

Elisha talks all thing healthcare in this episode, discussing how discrimination persists and how often women are ignored and dismissed when seeking medical attention, talking her about her experiences not being listened to in regards to her POTS, PCOS and Endometriosis in the UK healthcare system. She unpicks the need for further expansion of self-referral of many women’s health services, arguing many GPs simply decline referral due to misogyny and a failure to listen.
