The Gender Pain Gap: Why Men Get Better Pain Treatment Than Women

in #CASE you missed it Women s Pain Not Taken As Seriously | 95 7 The Jet

Apr 8, 2021 #CASE you missed it. Women’s Pain Not Taken As Seriously We’re always hearing about gender bias in business and other areas, and it turns out that can also go for doctors when it comes to patients experiencing pain. A new study finds that doctors don’t necessarily take women’s pain as seriously as they do men’s, even when patients are suffering the exact same injuries. According to the study, out of the University of Miami, observers, both male and female, often viewed men’s pain as more severe than women, even if both genders were experiencing the same amount of pain. Female patients’ pain was often judged as milder, and were offered relief through psychotherapy rather than medication. This could be a major issue because it can result in women not getting medication they need. 

Study: Women s pain is not taken as seriously as men s

Posted on April 8, 2021 by joeym University of Miami researchers found that when male and female patients experienced the same amount of pain, observers viewed female patients’ pain as milder and more likely to benefit from psychotherapy than medication. Both males and females were found to be guilty of this “gender bias” which could lead to disparities in treatments and women in pain not getting the medication they need. Study leader Elizabeth Losin explains, “If the stereotype is to think women are more expressive than men, perhaps overly expressive, then the tendency will be to discount women’s pain behaviors. The flip side of this stereotype is that men are perceived to be stoic, so when a man makes an intense pain facial expression you think, ‘Oh my, he must be dying!’ […] Women are not necessarily more expressive than men, and thus their pain expression should not be discounted.” (Daily Mail)
