It's literally fucking insane that it wasn't recommended until, like, this month.
Those women weren't actually in pain, they just needed to lose weight!
Also, the pain is not real, they're just feeling like it was.
Also they're experiencing female hysteria
Some people pay extra for that treatment.
If it was real pain, the body has ways of rejecting it
I hate upvoting this comment so much. My wife had some complications with pregnancy that doctors kept just choosing to ignore and sometimes flat out made negative comments about her weight. But when we try to find out "hey, this weight sticks around even when eating crazy healthy and walking 4 miles a day, what gives?" she still just gets blown off and told to eat less cake
You would think the fact that literally every single woman who has ever had medical care has had their problems ignored would get people more engaged in making doctors take women more seriously
When the ‘Father of Modern Gynecology’ is a douche like this, it’s really not that surprising that women continue to be ignored.
I just googled around a bit and there seem to be a lot of studies showing that the common medications don't do much/ arent worth it. Maybe that's why it wasn't recommended? There seems to be a lack of research into what even causes the pain and how to prevent it
Then we need more studies starting 50 years ago at least. Regardless, placebo is a thing. We give pain meds all the time knowing they do next to nothing with minimal side effects, give the girls some oxy, or robaxin, or fentanyl. Those are the easiest drugs for me to ask a doctor to prescribe for pain, and having a 1 time dose in a doctor's office will not make you an addict.
