Thanks for sharing this article Martin @predictable. She also has a great TED talk. It's good to see this get a lot of coverage with so many women affected.

Thank you John. This is very enlightening. I have suspected that this has been happening for some time now. This is happening not just with me but with other women (and men) for a long time now. I wonder if the same knowledge is being taught in the medical schools now that has been taught in the past. The doctors of today do not seem as knowledgeable as the doctors of yesterday. Are they passing students who perhaps are cheating on the exams? Or perhaps have they lowered the standards???? This is not to put down the medical field in any way but to examine this very, very carefully because people's lives are at stake here.
