Kyla Donnelly :
women are still overlooked by the medical field... it's twice as long to get a proper diagnosis or care when it shouldn't. Or they go off of studies that never involved women

I found my school reports as part of trying to get a diagnosis at 48. I was heartbroken by the comment "Cara is a timid child, she acts as if she's being threatened when questioned" I was 6.

We overlooked girls because we didn’t need them for anything but having babies and keeping the house clean.

Women are still ignored on most things. We aren’t allowed to have full autonomy over our bodies.

Clare Leech :
medical misogyny is the simple answer as to why women were overlooked. all the studies are focused on men and boys, women and girls are often ignored or overlooked

I was always told off for being quiet, not willingly contributing verbally in class. Turns out I'm autistic and the schools saying this makes me feel wrong for being quiet like I am. 😞

Not just ADHD. Literally had hyperthyroidism and they said it was anxiety and I needed antidepressants, 💯 harmful with ADHD, not even Tylenol is dosed for women.

Girls/women have faced a long history of bias in medicine. In the past, women were often institutionalised or given lobotomies simply for defying social norms - labelled with “hysteria” or other vague conditions for being emotional, independent, or noncompliant.
Today, the bias continues in different ways: girls/women are underdiagnosed in conditions like ADHD, autism, and heart disease, because medical research and diagnostic tools have historically focused on men.It’s a troubling contradiction - once labelled “too emotional,” now often overlooked entirely. We need continued change to ensure women’s health is understood, respected, and properly treated.

The difference between a childhood versus an adult diagnosis is like the difference between between precancerous cells vs stage 4 cancer. Instead of being managed and monitored, it’s run rampant to the point it is integrated into every single component of your life. Even when you get medicated, you have years of trauma and have to relearn basically every life skill.

I described dyslexia when I was at school I’m now 56 and I was sent to a psychologist. I was told that I was attention seeking and dramatic and I’d never amount to anything, happily that’s not true.
