From hormone therapy myths to misinformation about the HPV vaccine, misinformation is an enormous threat to women's health.

Great to see the OG slayer of misinformation @drjengunter.bsky.social closing out the National Women's Health Summit with some words of wisdom.

#VitallyImportant

A key obstacle in women's health is the lack of education. It is rarely addressed in curricula beyond reproduction.

What can be done?

Support the research needed to create knowledge & integrate women's health into all health education, not just classes on reproduction.

Day 1: #VitallyImportant National Women’s Health Summit 🇨🇦 A powerful start highlighting the economic, scientific, and health imperative for women’s health - from national strategy to innovation, impact, and equity.
Important momentum. Important conversations. Important change.

Why is it #VitallyImportant to invest more in women's health?

A study of over 1,300 diseases found women were diagnosed 2 yrs later than men.

A huge part of this delay comes from the data gaps in understanding health & disease in women.

Post: Oh, it is vitally important that I identify as African - American. Because if I don't inside of the. I feel like I'm gonna start talking in circles here. So no. But inside of the foundation of America and the definition that we have for black people, I have to be a part of that. Because if I'm not a part of that, then I take so much away from the community, right ? We've taught KT about people plenty of people that are such a rich part of our heritage and contributed so much, and we claim them as our own. Willing. Frederick Douglass was an orator, right ? That we. That we claim that we hold onto like he's one of our people. He eating live shit when we're in a tough spot. He was here. He was there. He was doing this for our people. And if you take certain people out, we no longer have ourselves. Right ? If you take white people out of the African - American experience, there's no Frederick Douglass. There's no Malcolm X. There's no Booker T. Washington. There's no Rosa Parks. We could go down a list of black historical figures that would no longer exist if we say, if we would deny our. If we would, NY white people share, believe, inspire blacks be.
