I’m just curious, based on knowing how women’s symptoms aren’t always taken as seriously as a man’s during diagnosis.

I just ask it as part of the standard 'check everything' mentality. It's interesting to me how it can be taken as women's symptoms not being taken as seriously as men's, because ignoring the downstairs leads to a lot of fuckups in the field. Heck, the paramedic who trained me used to say that you would (and I'm doing my best to remember her quote, but it's been a while) "miss a significant portion of issues if you fail[ed] to consider the reproductive system in an emergency." Put another way, the entire reason I'm asking about it is because I'm trying not to lump a woman in with the males and ignore their health.
